NICU Day 14 - Update

It's crazy to think this is the 14th day in the NICU for Alex and Mabry.  Our first daughter spent a total of 14 days in the NICU and was sent home healthy.   Alex and Mabry still have a long way to go but we are blessed to have so much support and so many people praying for them. 

Another positive update today-

Yesterday Alex went down to a 40 settings on his vent - blood gasses are at 63 which is good.   If he can get to a 10 or 15 on the vent then they will try to transition him away from it.

Alex and Mabry are both tolerating their feedings well, getting 10ml of milk every 3 hours.

Mabry still on the bubble cpap at 6 (this is better than being on a vent).  She only had one drop in heart rate last night and none the day before.
