Waiting :)
This morning we got here at 9 am for the speech therapist's feeding with Ellie. She took 30 mL, so she's at least consistent! She was very awake and alert! Probably because she slept hard last night (apparently she was worn out after her 9 pm feeding). They did up her feedings to 53 mL last night and did decide to keep her feedings the same for today because of the reflux study and pneumogram. Turns out - we found out that they alternate feedings with apple juice (this helps measure the reflux better because of it's acidity).
She's had to lay with her crib bed flat since last night because of the reflux study today and we've noticed some increased spitting up...so wondering if it might indeed be reflux.
Last night desat wise she had only 6 accompanied by one bradie - all self-resolved. This morning she's already had 8 and 1 a/b episode. :( I'm ready for this test get going so we can get some answers!

I'm praying that Ellie does better with the apple juice than Liam did. Love the news pics--she is getting so big and I LOVE her leopard outfit!! :) Hope you get the answers you're hoping for.
