So we are trying not to get too excited but Audra had another great weight gain! She is almost up 2 lbs from her discharge weight. It makes having the feeding tube easier to stomach (pun intended) because she is doing so well with her weight. As the weight comes, so does strength and hopefully she will be able to take her full bottle.
Audra's blood pressure and oxygen saturation levels looked good even though she hated having her blood pressure taken on her arm. We can usually calm her down pretty quickly but when that blood pressure cuff goes on her arm, she freaks out and only taking it off helps. Poor girl.
We are looking forward to some days of no appointments! Hooray! We are also sort of just waiting for something (bad) to happen. It sounds so awful to say but since things are really settling down and going well, we worry. Well, we have decided to (try) not worry so much about her weight since she is having such great weight gains. We shall see about that.
I go back to work in just two weeks. That gives me more than enough to worry about despite having the best possible care for our daughters arranged.
