Tough morning.

Ellie had a few apnea and bradycardia episodes this morning which are nerve wracking, and it took EIGHT tries to get an iv started. They're accelerating her feeds because they can't count on the iv. She is up to 10ml feeds, 11 at noon, the 12 this evening. If she can get to 14mls they'll discontinue the iv. Full feeds are at 17ml.
She's off the bili lights, but will probably have to go back on tomorrow.
I asked about when she gets to be in an open crib... 1500grams. She was 1306g today, up 8g since yesterday.
She's starting on fortifiers tomorrow, that makes me really nervous!
