Another great day for Niamh! Not such a good one for Bailey though, he hit his head this morning whilst trying to launch himself on a bean bag at a friends and managed to cut his head quite badley. Great end to a delicious breakfast :) We took him to the nearest Medical Centre and got his head glued back together again :) He is fine though, seems to enjoy telling everyone that the nurse and doctor 'fixed' him! Bless him! We took him to the miniature railway after and he soon forgot about all about it.
Back to Niamh, our little princess is doing so well. She has had her pressures reduced down to 4 now from 6 which means less pressure going into her lungs. Milk has gone up to 8ml/hour and she put on another 10g overnight. I had such a good cuddle with her today, she had her first suckle which was wonderful. She seemed to like the taste and was sticking out her tongue for more! She is so strong already, its incredible.

My heart fills with such happiness for you and your family every time I open this blog and see how she is coming along in leaps and bounds!
You have such a little fighter on your hands, and such a gorgeous one at that.
We are cheering her on from our end here just as I imagine more people then you could ever imagine are.
Thank you for sharing her life with us, look forward to the day when you post an entry saying "Niamh's Homecominng"
