Step 1 of 2 - Car Seat Test

Step One of Sloan's release is the car seat test. This is a common test for all preemies before they can graduate from the NICU. Basically they sit in a car seat for 90 minutes and make sure the slight reclined position does not cause any breathing issues like apneas or bradys.

Big room...little baby

She had one quick brady last night, so we had to repeat the test today - and she passed!! One test down, one to go. Earlier today they drew some blood to test the caffeine level in her system. We should get the results back tomorrow morning - if they are low enough, she is free to come home with us!!
