Emma Update

Emma is doing GREAT! We had our first visit from the home health nurse yesterday and our little piggy is now weighing in at a whopping 7 pounds! She already seems so much bigger than when she was born. This week Emma will have her eyes checked (preemies can have problems with their vision after exposure of oxygen on their underdeveloped blood vessels). She will also see her pediatrician and get a schedule for RSV antibodies that will protect her from RSV (more later). We also have to decide when I will return to work and when Emma will start daycare, something I'm not looking forward to.
Thanks for lending us this swing Aunt Kiley, it works like a charm!
