Yesterday was a big day for our little girl. She was moved upstairs to the other nursery. It has more room and the babies are less stressed by the ammount of people in the room. It is nice and willl be great for Lexey's transitions she will be making. Another change for Lexey is that she does not eat every 3 hours now. The nurses say that they will feed her when she cries. The thing is Lexey doesn't really cry. She sometimes fusses a bit but rarely cries. She really is a mild tempered baby. Other news that happened today, the nurse put Lexey in an open crib. She was only in it for 30 minutes and then her body tempature dropped so they put her back in the incubator. Kim is going to have them try again tonight. Because if Lexey can stay in the open crib and take all of her feedings through the bottle for 48 hours straight she gets to go home. We were hoping that she would be home by Saturday but it will not happen since they took her out of the crib today. She will probably come home on oxygen but that is not a big concern as long as she is well enough to come home that is wonderful. Oh and we have a 4 pounder on our hands!! Lexey reached 4 lbs on Wednesday.
