Good News / Bad News (But the good out weighs the bad so I am ok with that!)
Bad News:
They did an ultrasound on her head and found out she has a bilateral grade 2 brain bleed. It means both the ventricles in her brain have blood in them and the grade 2 refers to the amount of blood in the ventricles, which is about half or less the space of them. Its my understanding that this is a common problem with preemies, so we will ride it out like everything else that is thrown at us.
Good News:
- They're going to take her off the ventalor and see if she can breath on her own using the CPAP. This is good because its a step closer to me getting to hold her!!
- I signed a waiver for her to get a PICC line put in her leg, its more of a permanent IV line for little babies. This way the lines in her umbilical cord come out and she will be mobile! & more comfortable.
- I was also informed that breastmilk is coming soon! Which is really going to help her get well!
