Holding her own

Her weight today is 1033g (not really any change) and still no feeds. She had 2 bowl movements since yesterday which is a good sign maybe they will restart her feeds soon. Note she is getting food via intravenous called TPN ( total parenteral nutrition). it contains protein, fat, sugar, vitamins and minerals.

Her blood gas is better ( this measures the oxygen and the carbon dioxide in the blood). The ventilator is set to 40 breaths/min and she is getting 26% oxygen (room air is 21%).
