23-24th August

A relatively good couple of days.....

Yesterday Briony had a few desaturations, so they wanted to check her heart to make sure there was nothing sinister lurking, which thankfully there wasn't (it was checked today).

Daddy had a cuddle last night and Mummy had one today.

Briony's eyes have also now been checked and the opthalmologist says that there is a little bit of damage, but nothing that he wouldn't expect given how early she was born. He thinks that it will all resolve with time.

Briony has also been switched back to hourly feeds and tomorrow they will put this to 2 hourly feeds.

Another small milestone today - when I changed her nappy she was allowed off the CPAP for 3 minutes - she was pretty pale by the time she went back on, but she seemed to like not having the star wars headset attached to her!

She is starting to get a real character now and has worked out how to move the mask from her face. She also pushes your hand away when she has had enough!

Another weigh in tomorrow, so hopefully she will have put on a little more weight.
