XP: Adalyn pics! *Update 3/25

DrRxDrRx member
in Preemies

Hello ladies! We've had a really good couple of days.  We've had great nurses and haven't had any problems.  She is up to 33ml every 3 hours and is tolerating all of her feeds.  She is now 3 pounds 11 ounces (1.68kg) and will soon live with the incubator top off! She has been regulating her body temperature pretty well, and the blood transfusion has definitely helped with her desats and bradys.

She has been between 28-30% oxygen and is now on 2L.  It felt really good when the nurse called her a feeder/grower--so glad that we're at the stage where we're just waiting for her to grow!  I really hope that she won't have to go home on oxygen, but if she does, I don't think that she will need it for too long.  She does need a little more oxygen (~35%) when we're messing with her, but then she settles down.  

 Here are some pics.  I think she looks good in blue, but better in pink and/or purple! The blue is the baby hospital gown because of her IV with the splint, which they'll keep in until it stops flushing, which should be soon.  The other pic I just love, and I call her my little pink burrito! Smile

    I  am so happy to hear she is doing well! I think we were on the may boards together also because I have been following your amazing story since she was born on that board! She is filling out so much, can't believe how big she is getting! congrats to you as well on all her new milestones!!

    She is precious!! You can really see how much she's filling out. I was just noticing that about our Jack the last couple of days. Our preemies are looking more like freshly-hatched newborns than preemies now!
