Sarah weighs 6lbs 13oz. She is on .2liters of oxygen at 100%....which is amazing. She lacks stamina to nipple all 8 feeds a day now so the Nurse Practitioner will gauge daily how well she does and if she can handle more feeds....right now they are only allowing 4 nipple feeds a day. It could be considered a minor setback....but Sarah doesn't have the same level of respiratory support she used to. In fact, she barely has any respiratory support at all (which is AMAZING). She went from a high requirement to barely any just because her machine broke....Its great!! Right now my days are spent with tons of cuddle time and mondo amounts of reading. It's getting to be near the end for us...the light at the end of the tunnel is evident....now we wait for sarah to get that final push to get her home and we will be all set. :)
