new outfit

Maisie is continuing to put weight on and now weighs 1,530g which is 3lbs 6oz. Maisie is putting on the required weight and also taking her hourly feeds well. Daddy and Mummy are getting to feed Maisie which is   more interaction with her which is good.

Maisie is also continuing to sleep well and maintain her oxygen saturation levels but her oxygen supply levels are still high at 97%.

The eye doctor came to check Maisie's eyes today. Maisie still has ROP (retinopathy of prematurity) and is still at stage 2. He will come back and see Maisie next Monday before any further decision is made on what happens next.

What could happen is; her eye will get better by next week and no treatment will be needed, her eye will be the same or her eye will be worse in which case Maisie will need laser surgery. The surgery would happen as soon as there is a bed for her in Edinburgh. Next week is better than this week as Maisie will be one week older and one week stronger so clinically healthier.

Hopefully she will not need the trip to Edinburgh although Daddy might still take Mummy there as she deserves a treat.
