Today was a big day for Ava! She got to move over to the Special Care Nursery at Abbott this morning. The doctor rounded early today because of the move. She didn't gain any weight from yesterday. So, still 3 lbs 1 ounce. Her bilirubin levels are down to the normal range again so she went off phototherapy. I think she will be done now, especially now that feedings are going so well. She is up to 12 mls with her feedings so we are half way to a full feeding. By the end of the week she should be there and then we will finally be able to take out her IV! I took down a few outfits today so she could finally wear clothes. She isn't able to wear anything when she is under the lights so this will be fun. Her smallest outfit is for a preemie size 4-6 lbs but I put it on her anyway. She needs a little pink ;-)
That's all for today. Just working on eating and growing!!
12 mls already?! WOW!! Seems like so much for such a tiny little peanut!
ReplyDeleteWere the outfits a little too big? I bet she looked super cute!
Keep up the great work, Lil Miss Ava!
