Adriana's feeds went up today in the am, I will finish at 5am tomm morning. So far so good, it does seem like she is putting out a little more but I have to wait until the 24 hours are over to really know for sure. Her output might just slow down during the night like it usually always does. She puts out more in the day and less at night. June 23rd we will be seeing her GI doctor and we also have 2 other appoi that day. We will have our consultation with the surgeon regarding a gt tube and also a upper GI studdy that day. Adriana has a long day ahead of her, lets just hope we get good news for every appo. Hopefully we will cycle Adriana longer than just 4 hours that she is being cycled right now. Lets see how that goes, as for her upper GI study she had one way back, I am not sure when exactly but I was told it showed that the ink reached her bag in 15 minutes, I dont think that is what it will show this time. Lets just see as for her feeds she is up to 15ccs and so far so good, when we see her GI doctor if all goes good she should be up to 18ccs. Here are some pics of her today.....
On March 6,2009 Adriana came into this world weighing in at 1pd 10oz 13 inch long. She was doing so well for being so small. No oxygen or any kind of help. At 2 weeks of life she got NEC, she had 2 surgeries and was diagnosed with short gut. She only has 45 cm of small and no large. She has been faced with many complications along this journey but together we will continue. Soon Adriana will be getting on omegaven and on her way to a much healthier life.
