Today Emmy is 2 lbs 15 oz! She's doing great and is moving back to all bottle feedings today. She also has been moved to a little room behind the room she's been in all this time because she is doing so well. There are some sicker babies coming in today, so she now has her own private "suite" and the nurses will keep monitoring her from room 6, where she has been all along. I did not ask if her feeding tube was coming out yet, but I suspect they will wait and see how she handles all bottles again for a least 24 hours before taking it out.
I'll be going in at 3 p.m. to feed her and hold her. Then Charles and I will go back at 9 p.m. as well. That's been our routine this week, which is working out well.
I went in for a doctor's appointment yesterday and I'm healing well, so I don't have to go back for 4 weeks. Dr. Larson said they missed me around there. I saw a couple of the ultrasound techs who were happy to see photos of Emmy. They all have been so wonderful to us!
Charles has a four day weekend for Memorial Day, so that's going to be nice. We're going to try and get a lot of little things done since we know once she's home our energies will be focused elsewhere.
I'll post any update and photos later on after visiting her. Hope everyone is having a good Thursday!
