I don't have any awesome pictures like Jeff, but lots of good news. Emma's IV came out and she is eating really well. The hand the IV was in is super swollen and looks not comfortable, but should be back to normal by this afternoon. Her bilirubin levels are high, so they are going to put her under the bili light at some point in time. I'm hoping to get some interesting pictures with that. She's lost about 7% of her body weight--4lbs 14 oz right now; so today and tomorrow our goal is to plump her up to 5+ lbs so that she can come home in her car seat and not the car bed.
The pediatrician just came in. Emma is off all the monitors and will be under the bili light until discharge tomorrow. We can take her out to feed her and see her but otherwise she's "tanning." Thanks to everyone for all the support and prayers!
