Discharge Stats

Charlotte was discharged today and is residing happily at home (as long as someone is holding her constantly... otherwise, not so happy).

Here's her latest run down:

Weight: 5.4 kilos (11 pounds 14.5 ounces)

GI: Currently taking 22 calorie Good Start (don't even get me started on having to use Nestle formula...) 75 mL 4 times a day, and 50 mL/hr for ten hours at night, for a total of 27 ounces/ day.

Lungs: On room air, except for car rides. (She flunked her car seat test miserably... oh well)

Meds: One. Can you flippin believe it? One. Prilosec. Awesome.

Follow-ups: Pediatrician, NICU follow-up clinic, Airway Team (ENT), Speech, and Eye.

Other: Enjoy family.

Caleb got in the car with her today and said, "Oh, Mommy, you found Baby Charlotte! I thought she was lost! I missin' her all the time!" (Does everything a two year old say end in an exclamation point?)

That's all folks, I have to go take care of my baby.

Love.it.

  3. Wow, it's amazing! Is her progress due to the operations? I can't wait to hear more stories about how she reacts (in a positive way) to being home.
