Sophia had another good night last night and day today. Her sedation medicine was weaned one more time and should be turned off tomorrow. She could also be fully weaned off oxygen tomorrow if she has another good night tonight. There have been no decisions on what the doctors are going to do with Sophia's feeding issues but she will have an Upper GI tomorrow to make sure she doesn't have any bowel obstructions. After they get the results of the Upper GI they will probably discuss a different style feeding tube and possibly a procedure to help her with acid reflux. We have also asked them to look in to the possibility of closing her fascia (the tummy hernia).
It's really neat to hear all of the nurses comments about Sophia and you can tell that she is really liked by how they bring her toys like a mobile and a musical fish tank for her crib. Her quilt on her bed also gets changed rather frequently. Last night the nurses joked about fighting over who was going to snuggle with her. The nurses also like to change her clothes and tonight I helped them put her in her first dress...Sophia told me to thank Aunt Sarah for finding her such a cute one! The nurses on the unit just rave about it.
