CAR SEAT

We have a 5 pounder!!! How exciting! So big, but still sooo tiny! Today was a busy day. Ava had a head ultrasound this morning. I do not have results yet but am not anticipating any problems. She has been doing really well on the 4 hour schedule and has been bottling like a champ. She also had her car seat evaluation today. First they get a baseline of the babies in their bassinets for 15 minutes. They monitor their heart rate, O2 sats, and breathing. Then, they put them in their car seat for one hour. They have to keep all of their numbers up for the ENTIRE hour or else they do not pass. They can not drop their heart rate or O2 below 80 for more than 10 seconds. To tell you how strict they are, Justin dropped his for 11 seconds with 4 minutes to go (because he was pooping) and they made him do it over. The whole one hour! Anyway, Ava passed! Just one more step in the right direction! We are just checking things off the list. I am thinking that if she doesn't have anything weird happen over the next day, she will be coming home on Wednesday! We just do one day at a time though!
