Lots and not too much seemed to happen today. Ellie got moved into a new bed (they get changed every two weeks), she did not enjoy being handled this much or being moved, Hannah became very agitated and squirmy while I was giving her hugs during Ellie’s move. It took a few hours, a new ventilation tube and some sedatives to calm Ellie down. She is stable again now. While they were re-intubating Ellie, Hannah kept de-stating (dropping her heart rate). I’m not sure if Hannah keeps mucking up when Ellie is uncomfortable for attention, due to coincidence or if it’s a strange twincidence.
Good news for Ellie, while they were moving her they briefly put her on the scales and with her ventilation on she tipped the scales at a whopping 1016grams! So taking into account her ventilation she is still hovering around the 1kg mark. That’s massive for the little 695gram baby I had two weeks ago.
Hannah once again is off her feeds due to her digestive tract struggling a bit again, she lasted three days this time! She is also crying and whingy because she is getting hungry, I think this is a great sign. She is becoming more and more like a full grown newborn.
*forgot one important thing (sorry Hannah) Hannah has moved from NAVA back to CPAP today.
