THE BIG MOVE-PART 2

It was a very quiet day in the NICU today. Ava is the ideal (and boring) patient to take care of because she is breathing in room air, on full feedings, and just kind of hanging out. She weighs about 4.5 lbs (a little under). I am not giving exact numbers today because the scales in the NICU are different than the scales in Special Care, therefore her numbers are a little inconsistent. But, a 4.5 pounder, I'll take it! We waited most of the day for the doctor to round, as they always round on the sickest babies first. She came at around 3:30pm and wasn't concerned about her belly at all. She said that some kids just have big bellies. She'll grow out of it. I requested to go back to Special Care as soon as we found out results from the test that I was almost sure would be negative. And, the results are NEGATIVE! Phew! I left the hospital a few minutes after the doctor rounded this afternoon and she called me by the time I got home. We didn't know if the results were going to come back today or Monday. I am so glad we didn't have to wait all weekend! So, things are good. We are headed back to Special Care tonight! Busy couple days!!! It should be smooth sailing from here on out-we hope!!!
