Update:

Whew, what a whirlwind of a last few nights. Mommy has hardly gotten any sleep because my lil rugrat has decided to throw up all of her food! She is on Enalapril now, because of her heart getting slightly enlarged and we were hoping this would slow down her respiratory rate thus allowing her to eat better. Well, she hasn't been eating better and has been eating only half of what she was eating in the last couple weeks. So, we brought her into the cardiologists office today to see if the medicine was making her vomit- or if it could be something else. We just didn't want the medications she is on to get thrown back up and not help her do what she needs to do. Looks like we will be going for an Upper GI tomorrow. Poor thing! We think she is just throwing up (not every feeding) because her heart is working very hard but just to be on the safe side....

I am praying all goes well with it, and hubby can get home with her and get some rest. Hubby has been so wonderful in caring for her... I wish I could be there but the bills are calling my name. (BTW- my insurance doesn't cover the meds because they are compound.... what kind of BS is that!?!?!) Anyways....

She is holding her head up well, and has started to sit in a Bumbo chair. I think she thinks its pretty cool if I do say so myself! She loves her bath and smells SO good. I love the baby smell. That is, until she gets formula under her neck. Ick!

After a crazy day at work, and a crazy day with the baby being poked 5 times for blood work... I am ready for a massage. Or, just being a bum on the couch snuggling with my "Belly" will be just perfect.
