Another step forward!
Emma has had another good day (except for one very scary spell in which her heartrate remained distressingly low for what seemed - to Mommy at least - like a VERY LONG time!). She's doing so well, in fact, she's being moved to another room in the NICU for babies who are not as acutely ill. That is a huge step in the right direction!
She's still doing very well on CPAP and was even able to keep her oxygen sats. up while breathing unassisted (i.e., not receiving any additional 02) for about 2 minutes tonight while the respiratory therapist was doing her care.
Her weight today was 1032 grams (or about 2.4 pounds). As last night's picture shows, for such a teeny little girl, our lovely Emma has half-pound cheeks :)

This is so wonderful. I like to think that the diva in her is looking for a bigger suite. I am in love with those half-pound cheeks!
Emma you are doing a fantastic job. We are so proud of your wonderful progress. Way to go!!!!
Gotta love those cheeks! Way to go Emma, you are moving up in this world already!
It is so nice to see Emma growing... all the best to you. She looks much better... that's for sure. Her first picture almost made me cry... but this one really made me smile. Can't wait to visit all of you :o) Thinking of you, Franzi
