Abigail is doing well. We are on day 2 and the feeding is continuing. Yahoo! We also noticed that they had weighed her and she is now a whooping 3 pounds and 3/4 ounces!! So she is over birthweight and over 3 lbs (however, she is still fluctuating and tomorrow could be under 3, but we will take the +3 today!)
She did have an ugly episode towards the end of her feeding (where her heartrate dropped and saturation dropped and she wasn't bring her saturation back up and they really had to turn up her oxygen.) The nurse said people didn't like using the word "reflux" around there, but she wondered if she doesn't have a bit of it since the episode occurred towards the end of her feeding. Total speculation at this point, the above behavior is typical of preemies so we'll see...
Her belly is looking less distended, the only thing that she needs to do that she hasn't is POOP! She is trying but having some difficulty, one day I will have to print this out and show her when she is older...Abigail, we daily discussed your bowel movements and constipation with the world...hee hee, I'll wait until she is a teenager so she can be mortified :)
Well I will wrap up by saying, God is good!
