Day 30 - 1

I forgot to mention that yesterday Nicholas got his second tooth! So cute!

This morning, they had to change his central line because they could not draw blood out of it. They had adjusted it the other day because it hadn't been working and it was a bit better, but I guess it wasn't working again. They are putting him on a low dose of blood thinner now to hopefully keep the line open. Poor guy has been through so much.

When I got here this morning, I looked at his output. Josh told me on the phone that it was 99 mL at 7 AM. When I got here around 8:30 AM, it was at 145 mL! That is a huge jump in such a short time. I am still so upset that the breast milk has set him back this much. I know that we can't go back and change it, so no sense in dwelling on it, but I can't help it.

  1. You are right - you cannot change what was done, and you and the docs did what you thought was best. You had no reason to think otherwise. I hope he can tolerate the formula, and if not, they can find a solution to ease his stomach on it or find another type that works for him.

  2. The situation sucks, but you're right, it is what it is. I hope that they can get the fluid back down to normal levels. You guys remain in our prayers. {{HUG}}
