Well...She finally had to get a G-tube. We're not all that excited about it, but if it makes her a big fat healthy little baby girl, then we're all for it. She hasn't had anything for 24 hrs. now and I think she's about to come unglued. She was doing very well this morning (yeah, I had to go back to work this week) she was smiling at mom and recovering nice. Last couple of days, she's been a little cranky though, I'm sure it's the bed and being up there missing her big sisters and brother.
She'll have a big tube, well not that big, but it's big, sticking out of her abdomen for about 3 to 4 weeks and then we'll go in and have a little cap that's attached to her belly. That doesn't look to bad and you can hide it under her clothes. She'll eat what she can from a bottle and the rest will go down the tube. Poor little girl.
Hopefully if all goes well, we'll be home Saturday sometime.

Poor little angel! The good thing about the g-tube is you can guarantee that she is getting all the nurishment that she needed. She will only grow and get stronger and healthier! God Bless!
