This was the first day I have not been able to make it to the hospital. The roads were very dangerous this morning and then Alec had to get his rotavirus vaccine and since it is a live vaccine, we could not bring him to the NICU. We have people lined up so we can visit Lilah and keep him home for the weekend. I miss her horribly!
They stopped her IV because they were having trouble finding veins. The poor girl was poked three times this morning before they gave up. They've switched her thrush treatment to oral meds and started the Zantac and Previcid again.
So far today she bottled 12 ml and then 33 ml, but I just called and she only took 15 for the nurse just now. It's hard to say why. This is a nurse that had not had her before so that could be part of it. She could have been tired from taking so much the previous feed. Who knows!?!
Keep those prayers coming! We need Lilah to be able to take all of her feeds by mouth before she can come home. They will consider sending her home with a g-tube if she doesn't improve and we would really like to avoid that.
Happy weekend!
