It has been a very long time, about 3 months since our last post. Many things have happened since then of course, nothing but good things. Adriana is walking, she started with steps at the end of April and is walking now.She has been for a while now, she says many words and can count to 3 in both english and spanish. I cant get her to 4 quite yet, she says many words and understands basically everything. She is on tpn/omegaven 10 hrs a day now and her feeds are running for 20 hrs a day at 31ml/hr. She is allow to have a 4 hours brake. She is doing fairly well with her feeds and advancing and tolerating that as well. Our goal is 55ml/hr to get her off TPN. We are getting there, slowly but surely. Our GI is very happy with Adriana and how well she is doing, transplant is not even in the plan, nor no where near for right now. our last visit we went down on her TPN as she was gaining too much weight, which is great it means something is working right??We will just continue to keep advancing her feeds as she tolerates it. She gets flagyl for 3 weeks and 1 week of, to help with the bacteria overgrowth, which is helping with her feeds and advancing. I am very proud of Adriana and how far she has come, she is 2 now and a great baby. Of course she enjoys to push my buttons now and then but its ok, its all worth it. She enjoys listening to music very loud and dancing,she has some great dance moves.
