No more umbelitis

Hi all,

Today they removed the lines from Anna'sbelly button. These lines were put in the day after she arrived at the NICU and were only good for 10 to 14 days. The purpose of these lines is to be able to take blood easily and to provide her with all the vitamins, fats and minerals that she requires. The new line is an IV type that enters her wrist and travels upward to the shoulder area. It was a bit of a procedure, but Anna with a bit of sugar in her mouth passed right out and didn't notice a thing. She is still doing great on the SiPAP and everything else was normal today. Her weight was 858 grams (1lb 14oz). She has a new neighbor residing across from her who was also born at 26 weeks.

Tomorrow she has a blood/electrolytes test scheduled but other than that nothing major.

  1. Talked to Ciri last night and she commented on how much Anna has changed already in such a short time! We both said the same thing!! Almost two weeks!! Can't believe it. She is good hands and her new neighbour can look to her to see the progress of two weeks.
