February 21, 2012

Last night Harli did wonderful, she only had one episode.  Our nurse told us this morning that in the middle of the night they looked in and Harli was laying cross ways in her bed.  She had one foot proped up and she was just sound asleep.  There is absolutely no doubt that she is her mothers daughter!

Today was also a very good day for Harli.  She only had two episodes as of six thirty tonight and one of those occured during her eye exam which was not a surprise to anyone.  She continues to have bowel movements and today they raised her milk from 25cc's to 27cc's to catch up with the weight she has put on.  They left her vapotherm machine alone today since she was having her eye exam, they did not want to push her to much. 

The eye exam went very well.  I guess she is a Level 2, the levels are 1-3 one being the worst and three being the best.  They said the blood vessels in her eyes are forming the way they should be and that they would check her again in two weeks.  Blair said that it was the hardest thing in the world to watch with her screeming and crying during the whole exam. Blair said they did not seem concerned about anything, and if they would have found a problem they would be checking her weekly and not every other week.

Blair was able to kangaroo tonight for three hours.  Harli's vitals remained perfect during the three hours and Blair said she was perfect for her.  Blair said that it was the highlight of her whole day. Harli weighed 1500 grams, or 3lbs 4ozs, which means she has put on a little weight since yesterday.  Our nurse and Blair weighed her six different times making sure they had the weight correct since it showed she gained sixty grams since yesterday.  They decided not to dress her today though since last time they dressed her right away and she ended up losing weight.




I absolutely love this picture.
