Upgrading Isolettes
When I called this morning, she was getting 37 breaths/min from the ventilator. They did another x-ray of her bowel and it looked better but are still holding off feeds. They will let the doctors on rounds tomorrow decide.
I decide to inquire if a brain scan was done in the first few days to check for brain bleeds. Elizabeth's came back normal.
When I went in to visit this afternoon, I got to change her diaper, take her temperature, move the O2 sensor from her left foot to the right and do her mouth care.
They are upgrading her isolette tonight since she is over 1kg (1089g), she no longer needs the cadillac version which is usually reserved for the smaller sicker babies.
Oh, and Grampie got a visit today.
