Tuesday night she had an episode where she had a brady, and then had a spit-up where she wasn't able to clear it herself and they had to use that little aspirator ball to clear it for her. Then it happened again last night. They just want to monitor her for a while to make sure she doesn't have any problems with reflux.
These are just little bumps in the life of a premature baby, and the doctor's don't seem overly concerned at this point. I just have to remind myself that she's still only 37weeks and that she hasn't had the time to develop inside my belly so she's doing the best she can out here in the world.
I am so very proud of our little Peanut. She is amazing and I could spend hours looking at her tiny face and watching her sleep (in fact I do spend hours at the NICU staring at her!)
I'll end on the positives - our little piggy is eating between 50-60cc's a feeding now (and the feeding tube is out!). And when she does get a burp out, she burps like a trucker. She's got an amazing grip with those little hands too!
And now for what you've all been waiting for - fresh baby pics!

She is obviously a genius since she didn't even have aunt debb teach her how to burp from within the stomach like that. ;-)
Awwww. I can see both Mom and Dad in her little adorable face. Of course you could stare at her for hours. Hopefully she'll work through these last little developments and be home really soon.
