Maria lost an ounce last night. I guess some weight fluctuations are normal. Overall, they are looking for growth trends, and so I can't look exclusively at one day as a pattern for growth.
I just learned that Maria has been on caffeine via IV. I didn't know this. I don't like this. But I am not a neonatalogist, and the caffeine has played a role in helping her nervous system "remember" to breathe. The caffeine helps prevent apnea and bradycardia.
She slept very comfortably...the nurse said that she can tell Maria really enjoyed cuddling last night. I don't know if she said that to appease me, or not, but I like hearing that Maria slept well.
The last day or two, Maria's been a bit of a fussy- butt (that fiesty thing). So a good night's rest is a very welcome report!
