Olivia is being weaned off the morphine, and onto another drug called Clonidine
She had another eye exam with nothing too exciting going on – her eyes are still immature so the doctor will be back to check them out next week
Respiratory
Olivia is getting a nebulizer drug every 6 hours (albuterol)
She remains on the nitric oxide, but the cardiology team at Children’s Hospital will be contacted again to discuss how to treat her pulmonary hypertension
Olivia has gotten to spend time with her isolette top popped
She’s swaddled up and loving it!
She even got a shirt to wear – the sleeves had to be rolled up several times, and it’s still too large
Max came back to the NICU for the first time post-Covid on 2/1
Max got to hold Olivia on 2/2, his first time in 18 days. Olivia loved being snuggled by Dad, and Dad was so happy to hold her tight.
Such a joy to see you both with your beautiful Olivia Hope.
