Journal entry by McKenzie Graham —
Quick update today on Willa Jade🩷.
She is 7lbs 5oz 18.7 inches long 📏
Gestational age: 43 weeks
141 days old (adjusted 22 days old) 👶🏻🎀
She got to wean her RAM to a 6 and her floor of 65% oxygen to 60%.
Willa’s eyes are getting better as the weeks go on and both are at the same stage & zone, so fingers crossed they keep improving👀
We get to try phase 1 of feedings today!!🍼🎉There are 4 different phases and phase 1 she will be able to have 2 bottles within 24 hours and she cannot have them back to back. The rest of her feedings will be through her tube, she has to do this for 48 hours and eat 75% of her bottles within 30 min to “graduate” to the next phase.
Her NP (nurse practitioner) also wants physical therapy in her room more often and she would like to get mats on the floor, so Willa can get floor time! 🧸
The progress she has made and is still making us amazing!!
