Brianna has been off the ventilator and on a c-pap for 7 days now! She is doing great and her cpap setting has already come down 2 settings. Her weight today is 1 lb 12 oz and is only a few grams away from being 1 lb 13 oz! She is on max feedings for her size of 10 ml every 2 hrs and is also on an additive in the breastmilk of extra calories and nutrients to help her gain weight. The doctors all say she is doing great and they are very proud of her and they are happy with her progress. She is starting to fill in now and has chubby cheeks already. She is very alert and smiles a lot. She loves to suck on her fingers and her binky. I'm so happy she is doing so well and making great progress. Yesterday she turned 30 weeks gestation.
