Health and stuff

Just a few things I keep forgetting to post since there's no cute pictures that go along with them...

Gwen's showing a little bit of jaundice.  Her hemoglobin was high but is coming down, which apparently causes jaundice.  Somehow.  This biology stuff is beyond me.
Her blood glucose was good this morning, she's having no problems digesting and stuff.
Her calcium was a bit low this morning, so they added some to her IV feed.
She's lost about 1 gram overnight.  Not a big deal.
They reduced the IV feed from 6.7 to 5 mL/hr since she's handling real food now.  I really want to get that IV off - it's the biggest thing that causes me stress when trying to hold her and stuff.

UPDATE:

Gwen passed her hearing test just fine.  The vision test should come soon, but it's already quite obvious she responds to light just fine.
