Emma Gets To Move To A Crib

Emma moved into a crib yesterday morning 4/18. Her fentanyl went down another 0.2. Her nasal cannula went to 9 hours on and 3 hours of CPAP rotating back and forth. Emma tried her first bottle at 8 o'clock last night. She took all of it 10 ml (15 is half an ounce). It did take her a little over 20 minutes. She just doesn't have the sucking down yet. Not unusual for a baby who has had so many things shoved in her mouth. I told Emma I didn't want her to be a thumb sucker. You can see from the video of her sucking her fist and fingers Emma has other ideas. She tried her darndest to get her thumb in her mouth but just couldn't manage it. Emma can also wear real clothes now. Our little girl is looking so much more like a baby. Keep the prayers and thoughts coming. Emma is blossoming with each one.
