Sadie continues to make very good progress. Her bilirubin number dropped another four points today to six so they took her off the lights. They will continue to monitor her bilirubin level for the next couple days but as longs as she stays under 10 or so, she'll stay off the lights. She definitely looked a lot pinker today. She is also doing better breathing so the nasal cannula is down to 1 liter of pressure. And last but not least, they will be increasing her feedings 1cc every 3 hours. She started today with 5cc's of milk and add 1cc every feeding as long as she does well with more food.
Sadie still has a lot of things she needs to do in order to go home, but we are very thankful that she's progressing so quickly. Thanks again for all your thoughts and prayers!
