Things have been crazy over these past few days. Both mom and baby are doing well. They will probably release Jen on Thursday.
Claire is on some caffeine to help her regulate her heart beat a little better and that has been really effective for her. She is a little jaundiced so they have the light out to help break up bilirubin in her system. She has lost a bit of weight, but they say that is normal. The fluid that was in her lungs seems to be almost completely gone, and her O2 sat has been good so they are no longer worried about that. She is breathing on her own and does a pretty good job of holding her own temp (although she is still in the incubator to reduce the energy she burns to do that.) They have finally let us hold her for short amounts of time and she does really well with that.
Oh my gosh! She is just the sweetest looking little thing! Jenie you look great!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad she is doing well, even though she is still so small!
Good job, little Claire!
ReplyDeleteWhat a doll, congratulations and lots of hugs and prayers headed your way!
ReplyDeleteNoo way!!! Holy cow! What a sweet little baby girl! I'm glad she is doing well. What a total surprise. I just saw your sister the other week, so apparently all this hadn't happened quite yet... 8 weeks early! Man oh man! Hope you are feeling well. And I hope that sweet doll of a baby gets big quick!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to hear that Claire is doing good. Well keep your guys in my prayers.
