Our sleepy angel
Wide awake after her bath
Pink booties
Our first onsie
Ciara is doing well again today weighing in at 3lb 4oz. She is currently allowed to nipple every other feeding, but I just called in for report and the nurse told me that she nippled every feeding last night. Yesterday I did not go up to see her because I had an appointment in Blairsville and then after my appointment I went to Greensburg and got some stuff for her nursery. Nurse Kathy, or "Katty" as I call her, took care of her. Every time she was allowed to nipple she took the entire bottle! If she continues to do well with her bottle the doctor will consider increasing her nipplings. I did breast feed her on Wednesday and she got an entire feeding from my breast! She would've kept nursing but she is only allowed to for so long and they make her stop. When I breast fed her on Thursday she only got 5cc from me and I gave her the rest with a bottle. I got to bath her again on Thursday and I put a onsie on her that one of the ex-NICU moms gave me. Her name is Kelly and her son Peter was born at 28 weeks weighing 2lbs. She ordered this onsie for him but by the time it came in he was too big for it!! It JUST fit Ciara and I got some nice pictures with it on. I also put on a set of knitted pink booties that were a gift. They also just fit and the way she is growing I don't know that they will be on for long! Please continue to pray for little Ciara. GOD is good!!!!
