Highlights:

1. I'm 32 weeks or seven months for the folks who can't count.

2. The doctors are pumping me up with various antibiotics to prevent infection.

3. I'm also receiving steroids to help her lungs develop faster.

4. The goal is to give birth to her at 34 weeks, she will still be a preemie unfortunately.

5. She's currently 3 and a half pounds.

6. We are in the best hospital in the state, (University of Vermont Medical Center)


Please keep us in your thoughts, especially her. She needs all she can get.




Update: She decided to join us early and blossomed into the world at 9:58pm. She came out screaming and protesting, Lol.
The NICU team was right on it and started her on the CPAP machine. I was told by one of her doctors that they have to insert a breathing tube :mjcry:

Happy to say she is doing so good! She was on IV Dextrose and is now taking full breast milk. The blue light is for Jaundice, but she has a mask on to protect her eyes, she really dislikes the mask or anything on her period so she's constantly trying to take everything off. If she keeps up with the progress, she'll be moved out of the NICU to the trasistion unit. Thank you for all the love y'all, Sunflower is going hard!
