Baby Morgan Revealed

Morgan made the next big step in her progress on Monday afternoon when she was moved from the CPAP to the nasal cannula. It still provides a higher oxygen concentration than room air but without the pressure of the CPAP which gave her a headstart on inflating her lungs. Without the pressure, her lungs will have to work a little harder but so far she seems to be adjusting well.

The best thing about the cannula is that she doesn't have to wear the headgear and large nose prongs that were required with the CPAP, so now we get to enjoy seeing her face without them!
