1 month and 2 pounds


Caley is now one month old, and officially passed the 2-pound mark today. The day wasn't completely without incident though. She had a couple of bradycardia episodes, and her stomach is distended again. That means that the OG tube is back in her stomach to help vent some of the extra gas. We hope that, as she is able to wean off the high-flow oxygen, she won't have that problem. And we especially hope that the doctor won't decide to back off of her feeds -- she's so close to her full-feed goal!

To the good and fun news... Mommy made red velvet cupcakes for the nurses and staff at the hospital. Nurse Kodi stopped by to help us get the first footprints we have of Caley, which are headed straight for the scrapbook. And Caley got to end her day snuggling with Daddy (above). On balance, it was an okay day.
