Today the doctors' took out Madison's breathing tube! She is now using a CPAP which is a mask that covers her nose. It has continuous pressure so her lungs don't completely empty out. So she is breathing on her own, but with a little bit of help. The doctor's said it is common for a baby Madison's size to have to go back onto the respirator, so I guess we will just have to wait and see how she does.
She was also up to 1lb. 12oz.

Last night, Madison was put back on breast milk. The doctors had stopped it while she had some medicine for her heart, but now she is back on track.
Kara also got to spend about an hour today holding Madison. This was the second time Kara got to hold her.
Yea! That's great news, I'm so glad she's gaining weight!
