November 15 Update

We caught some more footage of Maddie today as the nurse was taking her out to weigh her which hopefully is not an indication at her future tantrums, she was not happy at all being woken up from her slumber, we will have this on the website soon. She is weighed 3.67 pounds which is almost her birth weight.

She is up to 18 cc's of food per feeding now and her IV is being turned down each time at feeding. The nurses think that by Tuesday she may be off her IV completely only leaving the feeding tube and her monitor lines that will be attached going forward. We were really excited to hear this.

Kim was discharged tonight at around 7pm. And is on bed rest at home, and the Doctors think it will be several weeks before her blood pressure will return to normal levels. We will keep monitoring her and she has promised to take it easy for a few weeks to get ready for Maddie to come home.
