More of the Same
I don't think we'll ever get bored by saying that Emma had another quiet day, but there's not much new to report :)
She had a couple of spells over the last 24 hours but these "desats" (lowering of the percentage of oxygen in her blood, which is associated with bradycardia and apnea) generally happened just after she had been fed (she's up to 7 cc every 3 hours). She was able to pull out of them all by herself (without needing more oxygen), so the team isn't concerned by them.
Emma's hemoglobin is quite low, but for now the docs aren't going to do anything about it as they want her bone marrow to "kick in" and start making red blood cells. If her levels continue to drop, though, she may need yet another blood transfusion.
