Life in the nicu is like always taking two steps foward and one step back. That is what we keep being told. Today I had a rough day. The doctors needed to move my ventilator settings back up because my blood gases were not that great. The good news is that they didn't have to move it up as far as they were last week, so overall there is still some progress. It is very frustrating, but hopefully I can take a day or two break and then come back stronger. The nurses, mom, and dad pretty much let me sleep most of the day, maybe it is just the rain :)
