NICU day #25 of 127
I still have this icky pin in my scalp. It’s not fun but I guess better than having to go through it again if I need another transfusion. My apnea seems to be under control, or at least the nurses say so. I’m not convinced – it’s pretty scary to stop breathing for no reason several times a day. All of the alarms and beeping noises scare me too. The day I had a cyanosis episode I thought mommy was going to faint! It was the loudest alarm I have ever heard. It scared mommy so bad that she wanted to call daddy immediately but couldn’t remember his phone number! When she reached him he came as fast as he could. The doctors keep reassuring mommy and daddy that ABC’s are completely normal for premature babies. It’s good to know, but doesn’t make any of us feel better.
