On September 29, 2013 our Baby girl KayAnna decided to come into this world 5 weeks early! I went into labor the evening of the 28th and she was born on 9/29 at 7:55 am weighing 6lbs measuring 18 in long. Due to some breathing difficulty she was taken to the NICU for evaluation. She ended up staying in the NICU for 9 days. Like her brother she was on the CPAP for just a short period of time (24hrs) She had an IV of D5 to help with her blood sugar issues. She also had a feeding tube for 8 days. Unlike Wyatt, she knew how to suck, swallow, breathe but was not taking in enough milk at each feeding to allow for proper weight gain. Half of her feedings would be fed through the tube until she began drinking the full 50cc. On October 8th we were discharged!!!!!
