XP: Never Have I Been So Excited to hear the word DISCHARGE!!! *Adalyn update 4/23

I can't believe that the day is almost finally here!!! Adalyn's neonatologist
told us today that they are planning for her going home on Thursday! Today we
met with her pulmonologist and pediatrician, and home medical equipment team
will be doing the training in her room with us tomorrow. She will be going home
on oxygen, a pulse ox, and an apnea monitor. She is on such a miniscule amount
of oxygen flow (0.025L) and since all babies are different, they can't give me a
definite date when she will go off of it. However, given her history and how
she has been doing, both her pediatrician and pulmonologist think that she may
only need oxygen for a couple of months, and it may only be during her feedings
or while she is sleeping, etc. So, we'll be able to wean her off of it while at
home. She will probably need the apnea monitor for about 4 to 6 months, but
it's like a band that goes around the abdomen (which is what they told me).
Good thing babies don't wear skin tight clothing, right?
She will also re-do her car seat test (she failed it yesterday by 10 minutes.)
She's going to have a bit of equipment, but it's all portable and I'm confident
we can manage. DH and I have been living at the hospital, with at least one
of us here 24 hours a day to make sure we get her routine, figure out her cries,
do all her feedings, etc, for the last week or so. She gets very angry when she
isn't fed on time. She definitely has a different cry for when she is hungry,
when she is gassy, and when she needs her diaper changed. It's really neat
figuring out her cues, watching her just look around, and crying because she
wants to be held and "join" our conversation by watching us while we talk.
