What a WONDERFUL update!!!!

So we are about to head up to the hospital. they took her off the oxygen all together now and they are feeding her with the finger tube and she is doing really well.

They did send her for an echo cardiogram because they did detect a slight murmur. the results of that will be back today

Hopefully its nothing. but she is still making so much progress everyday. Today I am bringing her "the poky little puppy" to read to her.

thanks everyone for all your thoughts and prayers. I think she is beautiful too but like I said before.... I may be a bit biased lol

I'm so glad to hear she's getting better each day!!

The picture of you reading the book to her gave me LES.

I can't wait till you have her home with you!

I haven't been on for a couple of days, and I've missed all of this. I know the whole experience had to be scary for you. I'm so glad to hear that Hannah is doing better. She is an adorable baby girl.

Hey everyone....

hehe I just love those pics. she's so cute I almost can't stand it

Update:

The heart murmur was nothing.... she has a small hole in her heart and the Dr said it should close up on it's own but as a precaution we are to take her for a scan in 6-8 weeks. As you can see she is off the oxygen all together now and doing great. She also pulled out her IV from her cord. LOL the nurse just laughed and said "that's ok we were going to take that out today anyway so I guess that means less work for us." I got to nurse her today too HOORAY. I fed her for the first time at 2 pm and she was SO funny. she knew exactly what was going on.... as soon as they handed her to me she started trying to get to the boob through my shirt lol so I pulled her back so I could get ready to nurse her and as soon as I started to pull up my shirt her eyes got really wide and she opened her mouth as wide as she could and started bobbing her head and making this "OOH OOH OOH" sound lol. The nurses were cracking up. She just could NOT wait to latch on.... she was so excited LOL. I will remember that forever.

The Dr said That Hannah will be able to come home on Saturday.... YAAAAAAAAAAY come on Saturday.

I'm all teary looking at the pictures and reading about your first nursing experience. How Special!! Hannah is just beautiful, and I can't wait for it to be Saturday for you either!

p.s. I just wanted to tell you that Lydia had stork bites, too. They started majorly fading at around 6 months and at this point they are 99% gone -- you can only seem them if you look really close.
