And The Numbers Are In

Okay, she really is getting to be a big girl. She her new weight is 2 lbs 14.4 oz (1315 g)! The nurse weighed her three times just to make sure and she actually weighed a little higher the other two times. She also had her 8 o'clock feeding and had only 0.6 mL of residual. Eight o'clock sounded wrong for a minute, but I guess I still haven't gotten used to her eating every three hours now. We also just got a fresh dose of different nurses doing things differently. Our new nurse, Ashley, isn't using the Autosyringe. She said she would use it for 12 - 15 mL or more. Actually Kent, our nurse earlier in the week, said 12 -15 mL as well. Oh well, it's not like it matters. But the Autosyringe does have an alarm that goes off when the fluid is almost gone. So not using the Autosyringe means one less alarm every three hours. By the way she's been having more bradys, two since the 7 pm shift change. Fortunately she's only had one or two tactile ones and the rest have been self resolved. So it's still in the normal range. That may be about all for us today. There won't be any more feedings or anything until eleven o'clock which will be after we leave.
