Well last night and this morning were not so uneventful for Rachel. She kept flucuating on with her stats last night and needed to have a transfusion today. Her blood count was a little low again....she is still on the antibiotics.
She was given some laysix today to help her go potty, she wasn't really going so they tried that. This afternoon she was better, but I think part of it was because they moved her onto her side and then her tummy, she really does not like laying on her back!
They did try to cath her so that they could get a sample to send to the lab to find out if there is something causing the not pottying issue. But when they put the cath in she peed around it and then pooped......she was trying to say, "leave me ALONE!" at least that is what I think....she had enough of the poking and proding today!
She was resting very comfortable when I left this afternoon. The doctor that was there during the day moved her feedings up to 11cc's instead of keeping it 1.5cc's every 24 hours. So tomorrow as long as te 6pm feeding went well today she will get moved up to 13cc's at 6pm tomorrow. She seems to be tolerating the bigger feeds and hopefully she will continue to.
More updates tomorrow.....
Jenny
