Sadbh’s update – April 30th, 2012


Sadbh had a restless night sleep and woke up shortly before 1am for a late night snack. It was more like a full on feast as she fed for what seemed like ages.
After her feeding, she dropped back into a deep sleep and did not wake until 6:30.  She had another feeding, then dropped back to sleep until almost 7am at which time she woke and had large breakfast of banana, cereal, toast and egg yolk.

Nadia was working today and Sadbh had a great time playing and showing off her new baby signs.

Trach care was earlier than usual today since she had such an early start to the day.
She started falling asleep before bath time, so Nini and Nadia had to spring into action to get everything set up.

Sadbh had a deep sleep for almost two hours, and woke up with a nice big appetite.
As soon as she was done eating, the fun and games started again.

Sadbh had such an exciting afternoon that she had to take a second nap and after an hour, she woke up in time for my arrival home from work.

Her evening was spent playing around and she got extremely excited when I showed her a slideshow of her photos from yesterday on my laptop.

At one point she started to chew on Nini’s arm, and even left an impression of her two teeth in Nini’s wrist.

We tried testing her Passy Muir Valve again today, and despite tolerating the modified one, she did not last more than a minute or two with the non-modified PMV.
Interestingly, we could hear some serious air leak coming through her mouth tonight, especially when she was not using the PMV.

She had a great evening and received a visit from the tickle monster just before bedtime. She was laughing so hard it was difficult to stop.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
