Went to Chest Clinic at SickKids

We went to the Chest Clinic at SickKids yesterday for a checkup on Emilia's breathing, lungs, and oxygen requirements. The nurse practitioner and the doctor both were amazed by Emilia's growth and also they said her breathing looks fine and her chest sounds clear. I think they were expecting to see a small ex-prem who was laboriously breathing with and without the oxygen nasal cannula. They said the most important things for these babies are 1)feeding/growing and 2)cardiac. Since Emilia does not concern them with these two things, they said I could start to wean her off oxygen, little by little. When she finally reaches a time when she's completely off oxygen during the day, I have to call the clinic and let them know so that they can assess her at that time. It's a a good news because I was initially told that they would not attempt to wean during the colds/RSV season. Now everything depends on how well Emilia tolerates. When she's ready, she's ready and she is going to let us know.
