Doctor's orders - Atiana coming home!!!
Atiana will be coming today, June 10th, on her dad's birthday!!!
All the test results came back and Atiana does have reflux, but it is not too severe that she cannot come home! The doctors have put her on a medication that we will need to give to her at home and also prescribed a thickening gel to be added to her food to help alleviate her reflux pain and discomfort.
Since Sunday, all her tubes and wires have been removed, with the exception of those that track her vital signs like heartbeat and respiration, and it is really great to see what she looks like underneath all that plastic! She now weighs 5 lbs exactly and is over 17 inches long!
Thank you to everyone for the continued support, love, and prayers, it has all paid off!!! Our baby girl is finally coming home! It's a shame that she is coming home when she just got a new, famous neighbor - Bobby Brown's new baby boy!
Stay tuned for pictures and video of our release from the hospital and a special to thanks to all the Cedars Sinai NICU doctors, nurses and staff that have been the absolute best to our family for the past six weeks! It is because of them that we are only 99% scared instead of 110% scared to bring her home!!!
Let the real fun begin!!!
