Day 36 Holding Steady

The nurse called Vince's cell phone as we were pulling up and we almost had a heart attack seeing the number on his caller id. She just wanted to make sure we were coming because Adelina was all dressed up in her new duds to see us!We both were able to do kangaroo care with her... she had one Brady for the entire day and of course it's when I'm holding her. A firm rub on the back and head from Mom and we were back in business...

She's blowing kisses to everyone here!

Addy's still on the caffeine (to give her a little energy boost) and prilosec (for the reflux). No weight gain today, but then again... no weight loss either. We're hoping by tomorrow she hits 2 pounds. The feedings were increased to 25ml (30ml = 1oz) over 2 hours with a 2 hour break afterwards.


Nurse Shannon getting Adelina in place for kangaroo care... All those wires are attached to our little girl. It's hard to see how tiny she really is in all these pictures, but this picture gives a better idea.



Look at these numbers on the nasal cannula and it's set at room air! Heart rate 145, SpO2 100% and resp 38. Keep it up Adelina - we're so proud of you!
