NICU, day 45

Unfortunatly we didn't get to go visit Avery last night. We got home from Sacramento around 11pm and the first thing i had to do was pump and poor Chloe was exhauted. By the time everything was said and done it was just too late to try and drive to Modesto, we would have risked Phillip falling asleep while driving at that point and it was smarter to stay home. I miss Avery though :(
I did call and get an update from her nurse though. Avery is doing great, no desats yesterday! They moved her down to just 1L of oxygen at 21% which is amazing, and looking like she will come off of the oxygen sometime soon hopefully. She is starting to be awake during feeds more, so that is a really really good thing for trying to nipple feed her. Other than that there is no other changes in her and no new orders. My baby girl is getting big but we still need to get her to take all her feeds by mouth.
