Many of you check out The Fox Miracles along with Addy and we are deeply saddened by their loss. It's so hard to put into words how caring Judith and Jason are and what they are going through is indescribable. Please extend your prayers for them as we never understand why things like this happen. Livia will always be remembered by our family as a beautiful child whose parents loved her very much. I'm privileged to have met her.
Adelina is having a good day with feedings and has taken all by mouth. She had a clustered bunch of heart rate decreases during the feed the I had given her late night. I noticed on the first gulp that she had turned gray and removed the bottle... it was the wrong flow nipple and I'm glad I noticed. She struggled a few more times after switching to the slow feed nipple and then 30 minutes later had finished enough of the minimum feed.
I also was able to give her a bath for the first time... she was measured at 17 inches and 4lbs 2oz. We're getting to newborn size! If she can take her feeds by mouth for a few days in a row, she will get the boot and come home. She was taken off of the caffeine again this morning, so time will determine if she comes home with it or not (as well as a monitor).

I'm holding up Addy during her bath... she's all head and belly! We can't wait to get her home and get the hospital smell off of her.
