She's all cleaned up, and ready to go home...we wish.
Today she had an echo and nothing has changed from her prenatal diagnosis. She still has an AV Canal defect & will need surgery most likely around 3-6 months to correct her heart. However, right now her heart looks great & she's cleared to go home with no heart issues. We'll follow up in 2 weeks with our cardiologist.
She was nursing like a champ this morning, but after two blood draws and an echo...she's exhausted. I'm not kidding this girl is comatose. So getting her to eat is a priority right now. Luckily the two wizard Grandmas made this happen & baby girl took a bottle for now. I am nursing, but however she needs to eat works for me at this point.
She's a bit jaundice so she's on a billirubin mat right now getting her tan on. Right now the goal is to get this taken care of in St. Louis so we don't have issues at home, so they are thinking maybe Monday we can go home.
She's beautiful! Her hair is a straight up Mohawk...that starts in the middle of her head. Her bangs remind me of when Aubrie cut hers off to the scalp...the are very very short. The back of her hair is long...a party in the back!
Isn't she fantastic! I know I know...Jade & I do make pretty babies!
What a beautiful, sweet little itty bitty! Congratulations, Annie and Jade!

ReplyDeleteOhhhhh Annie, she is just the most beautiful little girl:)
ReplyDeleteShe looks so snuggly and cozy in the last two pictures. Reminds me of a larger version of newborn Cami! I cant get enough of her!
ReplyDeleteI miss her already. She did smell great and she is beautiful. Can't wait til she's home. I may have to spend the night just so I can hold her like I got to do when Aubrie came home from the hospital.

she is so beautiful and snugly! i may see about stopping in tomorrow with a little something. good job nursing :O) i'm sure she is just exhausted- emory had a few rounds of tests (for nothing) and was just pitiful afterwards.
ReplyDeletelove from our family!
miss ollie is just a DOLL! so stinkin cute...i must say i am a bit jealous, i miss the itty bitty baby stage :) will be praying for her heart...and email me if she continues to tire nursing. a nurse here told me about something when miss maggie was tiring out and not gaining weight...but we got there and she nursed until she was 16 months old! (and might have a little longer had not been for her sharp little teeth ;) so happy for you and you truly have no idea of the blessings you are about to find in that magic chromosome :)
ReplyDelete....how many smiley faces are too many in one post? but i could not help myself!
Welcome Ollie!
ReplyDeleteYou truly are a beautiful baby! I'm so glad to finally see you! Been praying for you and your family. I also look forward to watching you grow... ; )

So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteshe is sooooooo cute!! i seriously could eat her up!! i bet she smells fantastic too :)
ReplyDeleteAMAZING! I love the last pictures! adorable!
ReplyDeleteI have gotta tell you that I have been quietly reading your blog and following your journey. It brings me back to the birth of my son Sean, 25 years ago...he too has that perfect extra chromosone...makes him who he is today.
ReplyDeleteOllie is so beautiful, so tiny and yet, so very much loved. I hope to be able to continue to follow Ollie's progress as she grows into a beautiful sweet young woman. Congratulations on your new bundle of joy.

Annie, Ollie looks so happy and content and just beautiful. It doesn't surprise me that since you were celeb-preggers that your baby would be baby-celeb and go right to a tanning bed! Get lots of rest and {{hugs}} to everyone. Ann
ReplyDeleteShe is just a doll baby! Congratulations girl:)
ReplyDeleteShe is precious! Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteOh my God! I haven't checked Blogger lately and I just saw this post! Congratulations!!! Ollie is so beautiful I want to cry. I hope everything continues to go fabulously for you all. You really do have a beautiful family. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm in love. Thanks so much for sharing her. I'm eager to see her adventures and will keep your perfect family and doctors in my prayers.
ReplyDeletehugs,
Leslie
Yes you guys do make pretty babies!!! I could just eat her up, and I absolutely love the pic of her getting her tan on! I can't stop thinking about this precious girl, and I cannot wait to meet her. I hope you guys get to come home today, and I'm ooohh so glad to hear that she pooped! Praise The Lord!
