Tuesday, December 10, 2013

So had a rough night...waking her up every 3 hours to try to get her to eat...she had one more test done to test her zinc levels...but the doctors have become very scarce...so makes me feel that they are almost done....the only doc that came in was a resident and he said that they are going to try the alimentrum formula tomorrow at 30 Cal...and that her weight gain has been incredible. (Weighing in at 8.11 today...3 oz gain)...and they think its only a calorie deficiency...which if that was the case why didn't we try this in the first place... my biggest fear is that we are going to go home and not do well even though i do the same thing they do.. she is also on supervised feeds which means another person has to watch me feed her... i guess that is for a number of things like watching how she sucks, is she taking all of it..but still makes me feel like they don't trust me... so we will see what tomorrow holds... on a positive note...we did get the pleasure of visiting with Brooke again and we got to meet one of her friends (sorry Brooke I don't remember her name)...she brought me some books to read so its not so lonely... and we also got a clown visit and got to play with bubbles and she loved it... never seen such a smile..but continue to pray that they will continue to give it more thought cause i don't want a fourth admission somewhere... time to get some rest while I can.. God Bless and we love you all
