Chillin on the Vent

Baby Cohen has had an uneventful day. She is just chillin on the vent. It is still breathing for her, but she is trying to take a few breaths. She is also breathing room air, which is 21% oxygen; a good thing. She is on day two of at least seven for her antibiotics. This morning her x-ray looked better; her bowels are less swollen and there are still no signs of gangrene or perforations in her intestines. She did have to get another blood transfusion today; this makes number three. They seem to make her feel a lot better, so I actually feel good about them. She is so small that they have to replace the blood they take out to use for testing.


We can't believe out of all four kids, our sweet 26 weeker has the most hair! She may have come out looking like Rapunzel at the rate is was growing :) While yesterday was a hard day, we still had joyful moments. Brian was able to check her temperature, change her diaper and even hold her in her isolate so the nurses could change her bed. He was so happy and I got some great pictures. 







My favorite from the night: Daddy holding his girl in the isolate while looking at her



We still need your prayers. Thank you for loving and supporting us :)
