Christina is down for the count. Day 2 of Mastitis and she can barely muster the energy to blink. Started the antibiotics yesterday. Comes on quick leaves quickly? Should be much better tomoorow ? From memory, I think this is how it works...
Faith is sleeping A LOT.
Dad is trying to keep the niose to a dull ROAR in the house.
We meet with Dr. Cook (the broken arm Dr.). He said that he was happy with the progress the bone has made and he could see lots of new bone on the x-ray. He suggested that we keep the sling on her arm for 1 more week and then we can take it off. We will follow up with him in 3 weeks for another examination. We expect her to start using that arm more once the sling is off.
Thanks for all the prayers. They are working and Faith is healing very well.
Blood tests are back and looking good. I think we're over the hump. Faith is sleeping a lot, which of course is great. Mom is up every 2 hours nursing but that is normal for a new baby and with all that has happened Christina is counting her (our) blessings.
Of course a great big blessing that we have are our friends and family who have been so supportive.
I have added more pictures to the Picasa Album. There are about 100 new pics but most are duplicates. Still no time to filter them, sorry.
Faith and Christina were discharged from the hospital late last night. Everyone is home now. Hopefully it will stay that way. A visiting nurse just came to the house to take a blood draw from Faith and Mom is going to the OB to see about some problems with the staples from her c-section.
I got to bring Allison to her first soccer game this morning and it helped make me feel like life was normal again.
