Not a huge update from the past few weeks but a lot of good progress for Ashton.  

Her eye exams have gone well and now she will not need to be rechecked for 6 months.  At this 6 month check, they will make sure that all her vessels are continuing to grow normally.

Ashton has a heart murmur that her doctors have known about for a few weeks now.  She had a heart echo done the other day to check on the murmur.  The results for the echo came back normal with nothing concerning.

Ashton has made a lot of progress on her bottling over the last few weeks.  She is now bottling 20 cc's 75% of the time.  This is about 1/3 of her feeds that she will need to do to leave the NICU.  Slowly but surely she is getting the hang of it.

Ashton continues to have a spell about 1-2 times per day. All of her spells are associated with either reflux or bearing down.  

Ashton will need to continue to improve on her feeding and outgrow the spells before she is allowed to leave the NICU.  Any and all extra prayers are welcome for our little peanut!
