NICU Day 53

Baby Girl had her second eye exam today.  I got a better definition of where she is on her ROP (Retinopathy of Prematurity) She is currently stage 1 zone 2.  Which, as they said before, is "expected for her gestational age".  I was late getting out of work this afternoon, but we did have a cuddle after her 5:30 feeding.  Baby Girl LOVES dinner time :) We have high hopes for her eating habits.

She was on room air most of today, except for one patch on her back where she bounced up to 25% then weaned right back down.  They will probably try high flow again tomorrow or Saturday.  Given she had an eye exam today, this was not the day to try something new.
