Progression
Once again, sorry we haven't posted in a while. Between feedings, diaper changes and doctor appointments it has been a little crazy. Howeve, things are slowing down se and doctor appointments are going well. According to the cardiologist office, Ruth is weighing in at 7 Lbs and 8.5 ozs. She is aso now 21 3/4 inches long. So she is working right along with everything. She is eating right by taking 2.5-3 ozsevery 3 hours or so. Her color is looking good and her pulse ox is anywhere between 81-86. She also has been taken off her LASIK medicine and is now on a lower dosage of her hypo- thyroid meds. She is truely in miracle form. We are so proud and amazed daily.
Currently we are working on holding our head up better and mastering tummy time. Ruth is really getting into mobiles and her car seat toy that lights up and plays music. It is so wonderful to see her interact with objects. She is also starting to understand where voices are coming from and is showing this by following sounds with her eyes. Ruthie is beginning to meet a few more family members here and there. We are phasing people in slowly so jher little imune system can handle any outside germs. With that being said we are also limiting contact by non healthy or slightly sick people. Some may call it over board but we are not risking her health for a meet and greet.
All and all Ruth is doing marvelous. We are so greatful for all the prayers and positive thinking. We truely believe that God has a plan and we are trying our best to follow this plan. Thank you for your nonstop support and prayers. Without it, we would be lost. We are still trying to wrap our heads around the next steps, but one day at a time.
Big heart hugs!
Ruthie, Josh and Laura
xoxo
