Ella is now 2 pounds 6 ounces (1070 grams). Her feeds are up to 20ml and she is doing well on them but her glucose levels are still up and down. The tests to find out why her levels are up and down came back normal and they are now thinking that it is due to her prematurity. After she grows, this should be normal because her body will be able to keep up with the glucose levels on it's own. Her oxygen levels are doing well and every day she seems to be more grown up in many ways. Today she decided that she needed to be held because she was fussy and it was the only way to comfort her. (this is a big girl thing to do and I didn't mind doing it at all)
Here is a picture of me holding Ella while she is wrapped in a blanket sporting her dad's favorite college team.
Pray for her lungs to keep growing, her glucose levels to straighten out, for her to gain weight and grow!
