stable day

Maisie was very happy when she was taken out of the incubator to get weighed. Maisie's oxygen saturation went up to over 90% for a while which is great for her given the last few days - seems like she is happy when she's getting attention and being involved in what's happening.

Maisie has put on 29grams and now weighs in at 1125g ( 2lb 8oz). The Consultant has upped the amount of Mummy's milk Maisie is getting again - back to feeding Maisie to get growth. Maisie is also getting more regular doses of Steroids.

Maisie only had one significant de-saturation over night and there have been no drastic de-sats. nor heart beat changes all day. Bradycardia is when the heart beats too slowly  and tachycardia is when it's too high - Maisie has a bit of both going on but mainly bradycardia.

in Daddy's loving hand.....

Maisie was good and alert and back to her old nosy ways checking out everything that was going on around her. It was really great that Maisie was back to being more interactive and Mummy spent a good half an hour or more just chatting away to her (which gave Daddy's ears a rest).

Although Maisie seems more stable today there has not really been any change in her blood gases and she is still on 100% oxygen. Please pray that we see some changes tomorrow and that the steroids are taking effect .
