Last night, I completed a sleep study. They connected me to an EEG and EKG. They also measured my breathing and monitored me all night through video and audio. The sleep tech explained that they were not allowed to tell me what the results were, so I have to wait for the specialist to contact me in a few weeks. In the mean time, I’m wondering what the sleep study could possibly reveal about my sleep and general well-being.
Edit: For years, I have been waking up feeling exhausted. It takes me hours to get going in the morning. They were concerned I might have sleep apnea. However, when I was getting hooked up, the sleep tech told me that they look for much more than just sleep apnea.
That sounds rough. How is she doing now?
MUCH better, thanks! She’s 18 months old now and still a little developmentally delayed (even accounting for her prematurity) but off oxygen, not needing nearly as many medicines, becoming a lot more interested in food not from a bottle, and just becoming a fun baby.
Pretty terrifying when she was born at 1 pound 4 ounces (580 grams) though
