yesterday mekhaai's surgeon said to turn the feeding tube off and up his oral feeds but the nurse wasnt comfortable so we are doing 25 ml every 3 hours and up that every 6 hours by 5ml more and whatever he doesnt take in 10 minutes will go into his tube, but he sucked it all down in 5 minutes and passed out to sleep, mamma's little piggy. I went to the ER last night because my head hurt really bad on one side and my pulse was 48 and I just felt funny, but the doctor said my iron levels were low and of course im anemic and have forgotten to take my pills for two weeks and she said stress, what a shock and lack of sleep because of breast feeding. So I am going to sleep at night and pump during the day. I am very tired right now but I cannot help but sit and watch those monitors like I am getting paid for it. I cannot get my head around the idea of him doing well, Im still nervous and panicky over many different things that can go wrong. All in all its been a good two days and lots of things are happening and changing, we get closer and closer to discharge and Im not sure if I am ready, I feel safe with him here at the hospital.
