March 5, 2012

Harli had a pretty smooth night last night.  She only had a couple of episodes, which she was able to correct on her own.

Today there were a few changes made, but not many.  They raised her feedings from 35ml to 37ml, because of weight gain.  They have also started adding iron to her milk.  Harli had blood work this morning and her red blood cell count was a little low.  They also saw that her body is trying to produce its own blood so they are going to hold off any blood transfusion at this point. 

Blair got to do non-nutritive breast feeding again today and it was more successful than yesterday.  Blair was also able to hold Harli for a large portion of the time she was able to be in the module.  Our module was closed for a few hours for surgery on another baby.  Which allowed our nurse the chance to hold Harli for the first time.  Harli had three episodes today, a couple of those were very quick episodes that she brought back up on her own.

Harli weighed in today at 4lbs 6ozs, and today was the first day that she has been weighed on a portable scale.  Now that she is not in the crib any more she gets weighed on the portable scale not in her bed like she has in the past.
