Sleeping

Here's where the expression "sleeping like a baby" was coined. That's pretty much what Madeleine has been doing for past few days. It seems good, if she's sleeping her body has time to grow and heal...but I always wonder what the next "thing" will be. You know, it's always "quiet before the storm"?

The Peanut weighs 2 lb.s 3.9 oz now, and while some of that might be the blood and fluids that they've given her, it's visually clear that she's growing. She's filling out and after going back and looking at older pictures of her, she just looks a lot better.

She gets another X-ray on her chest and belly this morning to see if the dye they put in her stomach has moved any farther. So far, they're saying they don't really think it's obstructed, but that her system is indeed slow. Let's just pray that she doesn't get an infection from the food sitting in her system this long...the less antibiotics they have to shoot her with, the better. So far nothing bad has grown for them in their tests...let's continue down that path. Oh how I love my Peanut!
