Last night Harli had a rough night. She had six episodes, none requiring stimulation, but still more episodes than she had the previous twenty-four hours. (Harli had gone twenty-four hours with no episode.) Not real sure what is causing the episodes again, but could just be the fact that she is a preemie and she gets tired very easy.
Yesterday Harli had a great day. They raised her milk from 37ml to 39ml and she seemed to handle that change very well. Other than the milk the doctor and nurse practitioner did not make any changes. Blair got the chance to breast feed for the first time. On and off for a fifteen minute period Harli was able to do the whole suck, swallow, breath which is what most preemie's have problems with. Then again late last night Blair did non-nutritive feedings with Harli, but I guess Harli was so tired that she would not stay awake.
Harli weighed in at 4lbs 8ozs, which is a pretty significant jump. She continues to get bigger and stronger with every day, now if we can continuing to have days with no episodes we will be doing good.
I apologize for the blog not getting done at night and the fact that there are no pictures of verses. We have been doing construction on the house and this week and there have been very late nights, and since I do not have internet at our house I can't just jump on and write the blog before I go to bed. I will try to get some pictures on either late tonight or tomorrow. I do continue to ask that you pray for our family for the strength and endurance throughout our challenges.
