Hailey's Progress...4 days old

Hailey's is doing great!! She is regulating her temperature really well so she will be taken out of the incubator and into an open "crib." She is almost weaned off the IV. Once she is then she is moved to another room, a front room, which the nurses say is closer to the door which means closer to going home!!

Her coloring is still looking like she has jaundice. Her levels are going down which is good and she won't need to go back under the lights again!

Her feedings are getting better. She is still falling asleep during bottle feedings but the nurse says that's typical for premies. Her reflux is getting better but still there. Her medication for that is still going. Also she is being given calcium because her levels are low. Once again, typical for premies.

Overall she is doing so well and she is just as cute as a button!!
