EXCELLENT NEWS!!!
Firstly - Our girl has now joined the Kilo Club! She put on 70grams and now weighs 1030grams!!
Secondly- Niamh has done so well and was so stable on CPAP they moved her on to Optiflow today!!! We can't believe it! She looks so much more comfortable and even smiled at me today. Of course the nurses said it was wind, but I know it wasn't lol! She seemed to be saying 'Look mum, I'm so clever'! Optiflow still gives pressure and oxygen support but is much more gentle. The prongs are so much softer and more comfy for her.
She is 6 weeks and 4 days old but still only 29 wks 5 days gestation, amazing!
I hope she keeps going strong on it, but so far, so good!

Thankyou so much Caroline and Bec, you are wonderful. I hadn't thought about being on the home stretch, just thinking about getting to SCBU 1 and the Fat Farm lol! Too wrapped up in it I guess. Come on June, hurry up!!
Awesome - 1 kg girl. The only way is up and up. She is really powering on. Such a tenacious and persistent little girl at growing. Must get that from her mummy! So glad things are going well and congrats on being Baby of the Month! Keep up the great work you guys and your wonderful nurses and Drs. :-)
