on the espresso again

With both Mummy and Aunty Rhona to get to the hospital to see Maisie today Daddy should have know that they wouldn't leave on time. If only they had..... 2 minutes before they arrived at hospital Maisie had been out of her incubator to be weighed. A missed chance to hold her - oh well there will be many more opportunities. Maisie has been putting it on and now weighs in at 2lbs! (910g)

Maisie thought that the Jubilee celebrations were last week Aunty Manu
It was a busy day for Maisie with visitors, Aunty Manu, it was noticed that she hadn't brought a lasagne with her this time. Aunty Eleanor and Uncle Carl, treating everyone to coffee and cake, brother Zach, who spent alot of his time on the internet looking for a car and of course Aunty Rhona who seemed to thoroughly enjoy her visit and took over from Daddys duties of reading to Maisie.
Meghan couldn't make it today as she was away for the weekend walking and camping for her Duke of Edinburgh award. Hope the tent hasn't been washed away in all this rain we've had today.

The current pressures on the ventilator have been changed today to encourage Maisie to breathe on her own. The plan the consultants have is to start reducing the morphine doses so that Maisie will hopefully be weaned of it by the morning, this will mean that Maisie will be able to be back on larger amounts of Mummys milk - the outcome may be, if it all goes to plan that Maisie will be tried without the ventilator on Monday morning.

Daddys most perfect solo espresso (Maisie) is also back on the Caffine as a stimulant to helps with her breathing,

    Maisie opened her eyes wide but was she looking at Auntie Eleanor? No. Her Daddy? No. Uncle Carl thought she only had eyes for him!! Great to spend time with everyone today catching up with Maisie's Aunties Rhona and Manu.
    Love you all. Kisses and hugs for Maisie. x x x x x x

    Absolutely lovely to see everyone.. especially Maisie of course.. that according to Daddy now weights 900 plus kilos..!!! She grew quite a bit recently. Maisie looked amazing- believe me. Such a strong little princess! Thanks for letting me spend time with her and all of you. Great to meet Zach too! Love to you all. Was Rhona looking good in the movie?xx
