Madeleine is doing well so far tonight yet very active...she's been all over the place with her sats...one minute she'll be low...the next minute high. She did just get 3 ml of food and a position change at 11 pm and is now *sorta* settling down. She's a wild girl, moving her arms and feet around...she's ALIVE, and she's strong for being such a petite Peanut.She also did get a glycerin suppository because she hasn't pooped since her last "poop party" (4 times in one 24 hour span) a few days ago, so we're hoping for some messy diapers tonight. I changed her right before her feeding and it was soaked. They're planning on weaning her delta P vent setting down from 35 to 33 at 2 am. Hopefully she'll tolerate that and keep moving forward, I'm ready to get some snuggling going here!!! It's making this mommy very antsy!
I know exactly how you feel. You wish they would just speek plane English instead of their jibber- jabber. Has she had any other blood transfusions? I think Alaynna had at least 12. with them taking blood several times aday, how do they expect our angels make it up.
ReplyDeleteActually, I couldn't understand the doctor because she was from India! You just get tired of saying, "Could you repeat that, please?"
ReplyDeleteKim, I love your artwork and you are such a talented writer as well! I'll bet Madeleine will have plenty of cool art projects growing up with you as a mom :)! Take care and we're praying for you guys.
ReplyDeleteLove, Tiff & family
Kim, I love reading your blogs on my days off, it prepares me for what I need to clarify when I return. I won't say much about peanut, since I am one of the few that get to follow her progress -FIRST HAND.
