Another move

Abigail has been moved again.

She's still in the same NICU at Children's Hospital, but she was moved last night to a small private room with glass walls. She was isolated more for the safety of the other, sicker babies than for herself after a routine test revealed she had a drug-resistant bacteria on her skin. She's not currently sick, and they're not extremely worried about her getting sick; it's just a precaution. She's also on antibiotics as a precaution.

She'll likely be in isolation for at least a month. We can still visit and hold her, and others still can visit her. She's just not so close to the other babies.

In other news, she's still getting full feedings for a baby her size -- 16 mL every three hours. She's up to 988 grams (nearly 2 pounds 3 ounces) and growing nicely. We've been told she's on track to go home sometime in September if everything continues to go well.

Thank you all for your continued support and prayers.
