Or not.

BabyBug is back on the vent along with heavy sedation. I want to say the extubation was good while it lasted, but it so wasn’t. Leah’s vent settings were super low, but when they took her off, she was really struggling to breathe, and the vast majority of interventions that would have provided her with some breathing support were ruled out because of the potential for damage to the surgical site. So they were basically just watching her struggle to breathe and not being able to do a whole lot. She had some medications and some extra oxygen but it wasn’t enough. So they woke me up at about 2:30AM to let me know they needed to take her downstairs to be reintubated because her chest x-ray looked pretty lousy. So that’s where we are. They need to make sure the surgical site is all good before they can extubate and know they can safely intervene if she needs help.
