Christa... update 11-29

We found out that we wont be going home until Sunday... she lost another ounce last night so they put her on a higher calorie formula today... she make "ugly" faces when she eats it but she eats it none the less... she is still eating about 2 oz every 3-4 hours... Doctors say she is doing well except for the little weight losses... Hopefully when we get home Sunday I will have few minutes to post newer pictures... Love to you all... Happy belated Thanksgiving to everyone...
Lizz and Christa

Christa Ann... 6 lbs 1 oz... 17 inches long

This was the first time I saw her... This was about 4 hours after her surgery...
This was Friday after Thanksgiving... She just got off the resporator...
This is after the nose tube (c-pap) and feeding tube was taken out...
Kyle is a proud papa... His first time holding her... He couldnt stop smiling...
Me holding Christa...
The most resent... Sunday afternoon...
Christa is doing very well right now... She is breathing on her own and eating from a bottle... When we left this afternoon they increased her formula from 15 cc to 20 cc... She is completely off the morphine... They also took her off of the caffine... that was to get her a little "jump start"... Hopefully we will be able to bring her home this week... it all depends on whether she is eating good and if she doesnt need any more antibiotics... she is eating a little slow... she doesnt want to eat because of all the IV fluids that they were giving her...
Sorry if this doesnt make a whole lot of since... I am pretty tired yet... I just wanted to give the basics...

As for me... I am doing good... a little pain at the c section site but that is to be expected... I am moving pretty slow as well...
Love you all!!! Hope your Thanksgiving was as good as mine was!!! :)

Baby News 11-08

Well On the 8th I had another prenatal visit... no ultrasound though... everything is good with baby and me... I have to have non-stress tests done every week because of my liver transplant... and to make sure that if I am having contractions they arent messing with the babys heartbeat... better safe than sorry I guess... I am fine with that though... I think thats about all on this visit...
