Day 36

Very quick post today - our little Miss Alice was at 1359 grams yesterday and 1360 grams today - she gained a whopping 1 gram over night. That's got to be a very, very accurate scale!

She has also moved rooms - which means she's graduated. She's still in the NICU but in a room where the babes do not need as much attention as they have required previously. There are three goals right now (if we can keep moving forward and not backwards):

1. reduce the 02 assistance on her breathing assistant
2. reduce the temperature of the incubator so that she can be in room air in clothing
3. increase her weight so she can move into a crib

With this room graduation, it means she's getting closer to being able to transfer to Lions Gate Hospital. Which won't be any time soon, but it's at least a move in the right direction.

    I can see that Alice is really filling out! The pictures are great! I can't believe it has been 5 weeks already.
    I look forward to reading your blog and we are all cheering for Miss. Alice!
