The CPAP is still turned down to +4 and when we left tonight she was getting 31% oxygen. They have decided to hold her at +4 for several days. If she continues to do well then they will reduce her to +3 and then to the cannula. I can't wait for the day when I walk in and she is back on the cannula. It will definitely be an answered prayer!
She is also continuing to tolerate her feeds and is now up to 36 ccs. They will keep her at 36 ccs until she gets bigger. Speaking of bigger, she weighed in tonight at four pounds and five ounces again. She did not gain any ounces, but did gain 20 grams. Way to go, Morgan Kate!
I am still not able to hold her much because of the CPAP. It is so hard!! However, I do get to help with baths and change diapers. I never thought I would love changing diapers so much, but it gives me a chance to be with her and touch her.

Good Morning Heather!
This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. Morgan Kate gives us a wonderful gift to thank God for each morning. We are so excited about celebrating MK's birth at the shower. Will you please send me your list? Next week we will mail the invitations. Can't wait! Love, Aunt Terry
Hi Heather!
I got a few days behind on my reading, but have caught up on Morgan Kate's progress. It looks like she's doing great. I will continue to pray for the oxygen issues, but try to be patient!
