Well, just as Lucy got into Nursery 2, she was turfed out again quick smart. However, rather than being sent back to whence she came, she was deemed strong enough to progress to Nursery 1. This should be her last stop in the hospital system before coming home, and the timeline for this much-anticipated event is dependent on three factors. Firstly, she has to be on full feeds, which means no cheating by having milk down her nasogastric tube when she doesnt feel like taking the breast. To progress towards this requires Robs to be in at the hospital twice a day for feeds, which is particularly exhausting. Secondly, she has to keep putting on weight, which shouldn't be a problem as long as everything's good with #1. Finally, she has to adjust to a lower oxygen level from her nasal prongs. As it stands now, we're hopeful that we'll get her home in 4 or 5 weeks.

This time I mean it, pics to follow...
