A journey to pregnancy. My twin pregnancy, cerclage, the 23 week premature birth, death, my NICU baby Madison and everything in between.

A good day, haven't had one of those in a while
Yesterday was good for Madison. Yes she still has the heart and belly issue but overall she seemed god. Her oxygen is still low on the machine awesome. They switched vents and apparently she loves that one. On the only one every breath she took it would shoot in 90 breaths for her which was very high. On this machine I guess she stopped breathing on her own for a bit which they didn't say was bad because she did need some rest. When she does breath on her own it is between the 20s and 40s which is pretty much in normal baby range. Her blood gases where coming back ideal now which really wasn't happening before everything happened so they think between the new vent and her recovering from the infections she seems to be tolerating more. The nurse said she can pretty much do what she needs to do to her leave, come back hours later do what else she has to do and leave again. She says she can pretty much leave her alone. Her belly did go down a tiny bit. Unfortunately we can't go see her because my husband is sick and I may be getting sick also...I'm hoping everything continues in this direction because it looks like a good one.
