We're back!

Lainey was able to go all night without needing oxygen, so they sent us
home
today with an armful of medicine to take. I'm seeing her regular
pediatrician on Friday, and hopefully all will check out alright. Laine
is
in good spirits now and happily bouncing along in her jumper with a big
grin
on her face. No doubt, she is happy that there aren't any tubes and wires
hanging off of her any more.

Thanks for all your morale support!

Hello again...here's an update

Lainey is doing better in most respects...her lungs are slowly
clearing
up,
and she's receiving nebulizer treatments every four hours. She
doesn't
yet
have the instinct to cough when stuff is in her throat though
unfortunately,
so she's taking a while to get rid of all the phlegm and fluid that's
being
rejected by her lungs.

She's off her oxygen tank and is able to breath room air during the
day,
but
she's still not able to keep her oxygen level over 95% when she's
sleeping,
so she needs to stay another night. I've been sleeping at the
hospital
every night she's been there so she can have "fresh" breast milk and
snuggle
with a familiar person. DH relieved me for a few hours so I can go
home
and
have some time alone.

If things weren't bad enough, all this "excitement" has caused poor
Lainey's
stomach to act up again, so she's refluxing even more now, despite the
increase in meds she recently got. *sigh* She's so miserable.
Hopefully
she can go home tomorrow. The good news is that she's become the
favorite
in the pediatric ward, so I have no shortage of help when she gets
into
her
screaming tummy mode. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers.
I'll
come back with an update tomorrow.

This is the new message I was talking about in another
post...anyway,
I
had
to take my dear, sweet daughter Laine to the emergency room very
early
Sunday Morning (about 3:30 AM). She'd been crying for a very long
time,
and
I just knew something was wrong. The doctor at the ER diagnosed
her
with
pneumonia, and she is in the hospital right now because she's
having
trouble
keeping enough oxygen in her blood. There's a possibility she may
come
home
tomorrow, so let's pray that she'll get better tonight.

I'm really angry at the pedi who saw her, though...I brought her
in
because
she had a cold that I thought was something more, but all she said
was
if
she didn't have a fever of 101+, she didn't need to see her. This
same
doctor called up a couple of days later to check on her, and I
told
her

about the coughing and wheezing, and she gave me the same line.
I'm
so
glad
I took the initiative and brought her to the hospital.

That was a lesson to me though! I'm not going to take anybody's
word
for
anything anymore! I'll keep you all posted.

Allaya


Allaya,

Both of you are in our prayers. Please keep us posted

As a parent of three, allways go by you motherly instincs. You will
find
out you are right by a big majority of the time!!!

Hugs and God bless,
Dennis & Gail




Great!
God bless,
Dennis and Gail

Great news Allaya, thanks for letting us know so quickly.

Allaya - with all that is going on with your little one I appreciate you
having taken the time to let us know of the progress - we are praying very
hard for her - and for you - as I know what a strain it is with a baby ill.
For what it is worth my youngest daughter had terrible reflux and nothing
seemed to help until at three months I decided to put her on solids ( Farex
is the brand of the cereal used here for babies but I guess you will know
what I mean) and she never looked back - it seems my milk was just too much
for her without solids. God bless Gwen
