6/3/13 – Let the ride begin…

Since the beginning we were told this process would be a rollercoaster ride.  It seems that the ride is beginning now; although it is not that big of a drop.  The murmur in her heart did not shrink, it actually got bigger.  They are starting her on medication to help close it up; while they do this they stop feeding her breast milk.  This is because it could cause complications.  She also needed another blood transfusion yesterday, which she received.  I received a call while I was at work to inform me of this.  Other than those two things, everything else is good.  Junior and I got there and participated in touch time.  She had a big poop ready for us, and while we were changing her she decided to go again lol I thought it was going to shoot all over the place.  My baby has good bowels haha; must be the plant based breast milk ;-).  We will check in tomorrow to see how she is taking to the medication. 

I forgot to mention, Olivia gained another ounce and grew a full inch! She is now a bit over a foot :-)
