Addyson's percentage of what she took on her own was over 85% for all day yesterday! She's doing great. This morning so far she took all but 9 cc of a 62 cc bottle, so she is off to a good start today too. The doctor hasn't come around yet, but Beth and I are hoping that the NG tube will come out today. If not today, then if she has another good day it should at the latest come out tomorrow.
Some sad news...I dropped our camera off the arm of one of the chairs last night and it fell right on the lens. Now the lens is stuck about halfway out and the camera says 'Lens Error' when you try to turn it on. So sadly enough, no more pictures until we can either get our camera fixed or get a new camera.
Got the camera fixed! I guess I just had to push on the lens a little harder than I felt comfortable with at first. It is working now so there will be more pictures to come. When I got it fixed Beth said, "Now you can resume being our child's paparazzi." I guess it's true, but I can't get enough of taking pictures of my little girl.
Beth is doing well today and is getting at least 10 cc of breastmilk each time she pumps, so we're hoping that will pick up and we can get more milk for Addy soon. We will post if anything changes. Keep praying!
There is absolutely nothing wrong with being your child's paparazzi!!!
ReplyDeleteYou will never regret the sacrifces of love you make now. Even though it's a rough journey, you'll look back at these times...and you'll look at each other, and deep in your hearts you'll have the quiet confidence that with God you weathered this storm. It will be a strengthening bond you'll never forget, and when other storms blow you won't bend as easily because you'll know what God's mercy and strength looks like. These are tough things to go through, but what you both will get from it if you work together is priceless!
ReplyDeleteYOU CAN DO THIS TOGETHER!
(I'm contacting the Tilton fire dept to see if we can arrange a home coming for you complete with sirens. OK....maybe not but that would be fun!)
