I'm entering this on my cell phone while sitting at the nicu. heather is "kangarooing" Emily right now. Emily gained 2 ounces in the last 24 hrs. She is back to alternating between the CPAP and the nasal cannula. Let's hope she doesn't tire out this time. Avery is just getting over the hiccups and is trying to get to sleep. She is so cute. she also gained 2 ounces today!
All the nurses here believe kangarooing make a huge difference in the development of preemies. they take the baby, in only the diaper, and place her directly on the chest of mom or me then wrap us both up to keep us warm. they like to do that for at least 1.5 hours. heather is right at 2hrs 45min with Emily right now.
amazing.
i'd better run. time to change her and get her settled in. heather thinks Em has a stinker waiting under there.
