- Weight – 3lbs 8 oz – two whole pounds more than her birth weight!
- Olivia had a stable night and has no big plans today for labs, echos, or X-rays
- Puffiness – The general cause of Olivia’s edema is the infection. Her NP said that the bacteria creates more fluid, and there are more white blood cells created to battle it, which flow into the tissues and make her look like the Michelin Man.
- As labs are becoming less frequent, and the team is trying to space them out more, they are not planning to attempt the arterial line again at this time.
In other news…
- Becky’s pumping is out of control (one good thing we haven’t had to worry about!). The 6.5 cu ft deep freezer that was purchased this month is almost full. Milk has been spread to various freezers at other houses, but there may be another deep freezer need in our future.
Hod bless you all as Olivia gets stronger.
❤️
Please go take the freezer from our house. Anything we can do to help. Love you all.
