Emilia is now 8 weeks old. Corrected age, she is 33 weeks and 5 days.
She had her second ROP eye exam. The result is still good. She will get another exam in 2 weeks, which hopefully will be her last one. She tolerated the eye exam really well. Didn't fuss or cry.
She is still on the antibiotics for sepsis. I believe she will be off the medication on Friday. She needs to get a new IV every two or three days because the her veins don't last too long. Hopefully one more new IV site and she will be done with the meds.
Emilia weighs 2 kilos now. It has been a long way from her birth weight of 870g.
She is so chubby now, especially her face (double chin!) and toes.
Because she went through a lot this past week with all the infection tests, medication, IVs, tooth extraction and an eye exam, I am actually hoping the coming week will be an uneventful, boring one.
Emilia was born on May 31, 2011, at 25 weeks and 5 days in gestational age. She came home on October 21, 2011 after spending 143 days in the hospital. Today she's a thriving, happy baby who continues to amaze us every single day. This blog records the journey of our miracle baby.
