Day 17, 11.06.08


Evelyn continues to be our champ and is doing well with her breathing episodes. The nurse didn't have to help her at all with her breathing today. They increased the flow through her nasal cannula to 3 liters/minute and also stretched her feedings to 2 hours instead of 1.5 hours. She is still being fed every 3 hours, so she really only has 1 hour where no food is going into her tummy.


Other good news is that she is continuing to grow and gain weight. She was up to 1,125 grams (2 lbs 8 oz) yesterday and lost just 10 grams today putting her currently at 1,115 grams (2 lbs 7 oz).


One other fun activity was that Colette gave her a bath today in a little tub of water instead of just a sponge bath, so that was fun.
