Tonight's blog post is brief since Viv had another quiet day, and I'm having trouble keeping my eyes open. Vivienne was a very alert and pleasant baby today. The team decided to wean one of her sedation drugs (Versed). She's on a very small dose now, and it should be weaned completely by Saturday. The morphine will continue to be weaned over the next week or so. I can't wait to have a drug free baby!
I was on my own today which meant lots of quality time with Viv. I finally feel like we have made up for lost time in the bonding department, which is wonderful. I spent the day holding her, talking to her, and comforting her when necessary. Speech therapy came by in the afternoon to assist with her 3:00 feed and taught me a few new tricks. Viv continues to improve with the pacifier and the bottle. There isn't a lot of action these days, but I'm perfectly content spending a quiet day hanging out with my sweet girl.
