Tummy time


Hurry up and wait is one of the themes that we becoming well accustomed to. Last friday we were told that the doctors wanted to wait through the weekend to see if Sophia's rates remained favorable. Today we found out that her rates did stay favorable despite the small amount of rocky-ness we saw this weekend. Patrick and I anxiously awaited rounds today. When they finally came through they told us that she was doing good and that they were waiting to hear back how her Echo turned out and that they'd get back to us. A few hours later we visited the NICU again and we were told that her pressures stayed favorable but it would probably later in the week that she received her repair and that they had a surgery on another patient tomorrow so we are waiting again. The good thing about waiting is that she gets stronger everyday and with each surgery they do (this will be their 3rd since we've been here) the more practice they have and the better her surgery will go.
When we visited her this time the occupational therapist had visited and worked with her and had her rest happily on her tummy.
