From Natalee this morning:
7/31: Another great night last night for Sutton, able to reduce the pressure on her BiPap (non-invasive mechanical ventilation) by 1 just to keep her lungs open!
Her FiO2 (how much additional oxygen she needs) is at normal room air, so she’s oxygenating well just needing help keeping the lungs open/expanding.
They turned off the phototherapy for her jaundice and will continue to check liver levels 2x a day but for now it’s stable. Adding some fortifier to her milk to try and get her to gain a little weight!
Her nurse said she thinks she’ll be able to try CPAP here soon and then hopefully a high flow nasal cannula by the end of next week if she continues at this rate. She said it really depends on the doctor, some are more aggressive than others.
Words cannot describe the love/prayer/support we all feel! Thank you all again.
