Party at my Crib!

Day 99, 2060 grams

So mommy comes into the unit today and thinks, "Hey, where's my baby?" But then she sees my blanket in a little crib where my big ol' clunky incubator used to be, she nearly breaks down crying out of joy!

Moving from an incubator to a crib is a HUGE step for a preemie. In fact, it's one step out the door. Being in a crib means that I can regulate my own body temperature and I don't need an oxygen enriched atmosphere. Speaking of breathing, they also discontinued my ventolin treatments, which is an inhaled medicine for my lungs. Now the only thing I'm getting other than food are vitamins.

And that's not all! My feeding schedule has been changed to every 4 hours from every 3 hours. So now I get more food (55ml) and more time to rest between feeds.

Look out world, I'm on my way!
