Brianna has been transferred

On tuesday 9/8/09 Brianna was transferred to a hospital closer to us. She handled the transfer great and was fiesty the whole way...She pushed out her feeding tube 2 times during the ride in the ambulance. This is her new trick she uses her tongue and gag reflux to push out her feeding tube at almost every feeding. The nurses now stand and watch her feeding go in as they don't trust her as she likes to do things when their heads are turned! Yesterday I held her for over an hour and she managed to pull out her oxygen, push out her feeding tube, and take off her heart monitor! LOL She has such a fiesty personality. She has started to work on breastfeeding but in the next couple weeks they will introduce the bottle and see how that goes as its obvious she is not happy with a feeding tube. The ride to the new hospital is so easy now its only 20 mins or so away from home so its easier to visit her and we can visit longer and time our visits around the times she gets care so we get to change her, take her temp, and feed her. She is now 2 lbs 11.4 ounces and is looking more and more like her daddy everyday!
