Delilah is currently weighing 720 grams 1.9lbs, at 3am they are increasing her feeds to 4ml and taking her off the fats and she is currently at 25% oxygen at 1liter.
I know alot of this stuff sounds foreign to everybody reading it and it's hard to understand, i mean hell this is my 2nd time going through having a preemie and i dont get it all the time. I'm sorry I don't know how to explain it better but I'm not medically smart lol I tell my nurses to dumb it down and I don't write anything down and I really should hahaha I always think i"ll remember everything I'm told but those who know me, know i forget where i put my phone when I'm holding it.
I have a few people ask if they can buy cloths for Delilah yet and I have to be very very honest with everybody and thank those who have been super patient. The reason we told people not to buy anything at first was we were super scared she wasn't going to make it. She was born very very sick and super tiny, we had some very scary calls that I toned down on here I don't have this blog to scare people or make them feel bad for us and our situation I have this so people know whats going on with Delilah and I don't have to remember everything 100 times. We are still telling people to hold off on buying cloths since we don't know how big she will be when she comes home, or what size she'll be for what season. If you have hand me downs you want to get rid of ill gladly take those, I just want people to spend a ton of money (well not yet anyways lol).
Another great thing that has happened for us Rick is working :) He is helping a friend of his doing exterminating stuff, his friend needs all your prayers he recently had a stroke and has had a few set backs so please pray for him, also please keep praying for Delilahs friend Cheyanne and her lungs.
I truly pray none of you reading this ever has to go through having a preemie baby (some of you reading already have) it is a very tough road but as long as you are patient and listen to your Dr's, nurses, pray and have a great support system then you will do fine and if anyone every has to go through this I'm always here for support. It's harder then people think but again as parents we're just along for the ride.
Hugs and love
p.s please pray Delilah keeps gaining weight! It's funny I pray to lose the weight, and pray my kids gain some weight lol
Another picture Dr.Martin took of Delilah with her ring on. remember this is a size 7 women's ring and is that big on my little peanut! but this little girl is doing amazing thing's and will do even greater thing's in life :)
