Taylor (day 17) and family update

Taylor has been able to continue with the formula feedings and was up to full feedings today so Dr. O took out her central belly button line!! She was also moved into a regular nursery bed, but still in the NICU. But now we don’t have to look through glass or reach through the little holes to touch her or talk to her. Taylor had her follow up EEG, since she is no longer on Morphine, and the results should come in by Monday. She was rather sleepy today – not always wanting to suck on her bottle, so to be on the cautious side, they have ordered lab work to rule out infection. At this point there are no other indications, but with so many wires and tubes it would not be surprising.

Jenny has continued to have normal blood pressure during her daily checks. Trevor is feeling much better after his bout with a stomach virus yesterday.  Brian is still dealing with some sinus/cold virus and has been unable to see Taylor since Monday.
