Happy 5 weeks old little girl!🎉🥳🥰 She’s a snug little bug this morning😊. Nurse Hannah says she can face plant later, but she needs to try out some different positions first. It’s nice to see her face😍
We had a pretty good night! All her tests were taken this morning. The blood gas results were within acceptable range🎉👍 Now we’re waiting to find out more about her head ultrasound.
Just to introduce you to the area that has been our home for the past 5 weeks, here’s a panoramic photo of the skywalk between Children’s hospital (on the left) and Methodist Hospital (where the NICU for Children’s is located), with a lovely view of Omaha. We walk over from the NICU to Children’s daily to go to the cafeteria or coffee shop.
Kevin is working from the hospital room today (I don’t know how he does it without getting distracted every 5 seconds like me, but he does it! 🧠👍🥰) Love to you all from the three of us!💕💖💕
Evening Update:
Annelise had day of sleeping and crying today. Because of her paralyzed vocal cord, she slightly squeaks, and you can occasionally hear a baby whimper from her.
She had some good test results.... the one that measured her cortisol levels determined that her body can make its own cortisol. 👍 There is a different nurse taking the head circumference measurement tonight, but it looks like it went down! 🥳 We’re still waiting to connect with the neurosurgeon about the results of her head ultrasound. She ALSO had a surprise echocardiogram today... hoping that’s just routine... looking forward to getting those results too.
Our girl gained 2oz today! We’re still exhausted! But Kevin is taking another day off tomorrow 🥰
I hope you all had a great day!
