Myla has moved on back! Well, to the back of the NICU anyway. They have moved her to the back in a corner for a little more privacy. She's doing great on the low flow oxygen and was down to 25% tonight. As adults, the room air we breathe is 21%, so I'd say 25 is pretty good. The nurses keep telling us that being on low flow is a huge step, and that makes us feel pretty good. We know that she is growing and getting stronger.
Myla is also up to 24 milliliters on her feedings and they are giving it to her over 45 minutes instead of an hour. Our handy=dandy packet says that a 4 1/2 pound baby needs 12-15 ounces a day, and 31 milliliters is an ounce. So she's getting there! Just another sign that she's growing!

Hi there from your cousin Sarah in Seattle. Congratulations on being parents! We read your blog regularly and marvel at Myla's progress. You are in our prayers. Can't wait to hear that she has passed the next test.
Love,
Sarah
Whistle, Whistle, Clap, Clap, Clap, Yeahhhhhhhhh!! (It's just not the same as the real thing, but I think you get the jist of my excitement for the Washburn Family!!) Myla's progress is miraculous. What a gift she is and what a gift Mom and Dad are to Myla! Modern technology is a marvel, but teamed with the love being given by Mom and Dad are REALLY what is enabling Myla to thrive!! Bless you all!!!! Barb at Curves
we are so poud she is on her way to go home.
love,
evans family
Hi Johnny & Kara,
Kara, you don't know me, but I watched Johnny grow up here in California. I'm a childhood friend of Becky's. I wanted to send my prayers to the both of you and your little girl. Becky has sent me a couple of updates on your daughter. Stay strong and know that there are a lot of people thinking of you everyday. Hugs and prayers from Redondo Beach, Ca.
