Today began Emmy's discharge process. She had a "car seat tolerance test," where she spent 30 minutes in a car seat and they monitored her heart rate and breathing, and she passed with flying colors. She's keeping her temperature up great, despite that fact that she's quite adept at getting her hat to come off and wiggling her arms out of the blankets. Tricia, her nurse again today, said she came in earlier today and she was sleeping with her arms out and up in the air. I wish I'd been there with the camera!
Tomorrow she'll have her first photo shoot (a service the hospital offers and you only pay for any photos you may decide to order) and at some point tomorrow or Tuesday they will give us our "discharge instructions." We don't anticipate her coming home any earlier than Tuesday, and it'll just depend on her weight, etc. the next 24-48 hours. It feels like the end is finally in sight!
Beth, she really DOES have monkey-feets. Look at those little piggies.
ReplyDeleteShe has come so far! I can't wait to hold her!
