Goodbye Oxygen Support!

This morning Morgan was taken off the nasal cannula completely. So far she has tolerated it without a problem and we are very excited! If she can continue to do well without the extra oxygen then she won't need it when she comes home either. Even if she doesn't make it home for Christmas, having her stay off the cannula will make for a pretty great gift.

In other good news, she also passed her hearing test last week. Premature babies have an increased risk for hearing and vision loss so they will be testing her regularly for a while.

With all the progress she is making, the nurses are also taking steps to get her ready to come home. Today they flattened her bed instead of having it on an incline so that she will be used to that when she comes home. She wasn't real thrilled with this at first. The nurse said she was laying there crying and kicking but she eventually got her to calm down. They will also try bottle feeding again this week. She has been much more interested in her pacifier since the surgery so we hope this will translate into successful feedings.


This is much better.


I love my Nana!

Who took my pacifier?
