Feeding begins

They have started Ella's feeds again and she is doing well with it. Her belly is soft again today and she is back to herself again...hungry and letting us know about it. Hopefully in the morning they will increase her feeds and get back to where she was before they stopped the feeds. The doctor increased the liters on her oxygen because the x-ray showed that her lungs were smaller and the increased liters will help. The lungs could be smaller because her belly was swollen but he didn't want to take that chance. She also lost 30 grams today but it was expected since she is only getting a small amount of food.

Pray for her lungs, belly to continue to improve, and for her to gain weight.
