Take a Deep Breath

Ellie is back off of the high flow nasal cannula! So for the fourth, and hopefully final time she is completely off breathing support! Good job Ellie! Better yet, she is doing well with her breathing. She has only had about half a dozen breathing episodes since 8 am when she was taken off her breathing assistance. Her isolette temperature was also lowered again. It is down to 27.4 deg C so she is almost ready for the crib. She is also getting close to being ready to start bottle feeding! Hopefully she will start trying that within a week.

Mandy's skin issue is starting to clear up now. Praise God for that! She has been very uncomfortable and unhappy about the whole thing. So we are both looking forward to it continuing to get better.
