Hey Everyone,
Today was a good day. Maddie is still doing great.
Daddy got to hold her today. She loves to be held, her stats stay so calm and she just sleeps away. When the nurse took her from Jeff and put her back in her bed, she was not happy. Her stats went down for a few seconds, it was as if she was saying "How dare you take me from Daddy?!"
The nurse practicioner came in to see Maddie today. She said she is doing wonderfully. Soon she should start gaining weight and will be up to full feeds. They need to continue to watch her closely for feeding intolerance and NEC (necrotizing enterocolitis). This is where she doesn't tolerate the milk well and an infection could form. Right now she isn't showing any symptoms, but they have to take it slow. Her digestive system can only handle so much right now.
