Chest Tube is Out!!!

We had another small victory today. When Daddy and I arrived to see Luna this morning, we were told that she was having a good day and had just had her chest tube removed. YAY!!! Although it was being used to prevent fluid from collecting in her chest, I really didn't like the chest tube and I know Luna didn't like it either. We are both happy it is gone. That is one less thing poking her. We were also told that her nitric oxide might be removed tomorrow.

Other than that, we had a quiet day in the NICU. Luna was much more active today. She was awake for quite awhile and enjoyed looking around at her Mommy, Daddy, and her nurses. We also saw her yawn for the first time which was pretty exciting. :)
