Today was a good day. Her little tummy still seems to try to figure out what is going on and has little bits of green bacteria that is still in there. I was able to kangaroo hold her today, which I absolutley love. She was real still this time and was cuddled in a little froggie position with her legs tucked way up by her little butt. She was nice and warm, her little body temp was up to 37.8. The machine flashed...BABY HOT! Mom really knows how to warm her up. After that, we let her get back into the grove before waking her up again for her first bath! It was just a little sponge bath and the nurse, Jen, and I washed her down. She was wide awake the whole time with both of her little eyes wide open. The bath really cooled her down and then the machine said...BABY COLD, so we but our little hands over her body to try to warm her up. She was out like a light, we have never seen her so zonked out and her little heartbeat was the lowest it was all day, down in the 150's. Her last little excitment for the day while we were there was that she had a little saline flush to get her little poopy out. Within 2 minutes, she had worked out the maconium. It was the cutest little poop we have ever seen. Mommy and daddy were so proud. The doctors decided to try giving her milk again, so right before we left, they give her 1cc of milk. We will see how it goes tomorrow!
I weighed 2 lbs today. Her daytime nurse was Jen, who she really loves and we do too. We feel so comfortable when she is with her.
