Chris moved back to Austin today. He has to return to work. So baby girl and I are in Houston on the 15th floor. She is doing well. Grandpa bought her a rocker and she loves it. She loves her paci, sleeping and taking the bottle. She is learning endurance for taking the bottle. She does really well and is up to 30 cc but needs to take 50. She may have to go home on a nasal gastric (NG) tube. So that we can continue to feed her and she does not have to take all by mouth. We are unsure when she will go home but we are hoping soon. Cardio said she has done as expected and should grow into the PA band. Her recovery from surgery has gone well. Everyday I am amazed at how strong she is.
I have stopped pumping. I really wanted to breastfeed Angelica however getting up at night and getting woken up by nurses does not allow much time for pumping. It was a really difficult decision but since Angelica cannot breastfeed until she conquers the bottle it made it even more difficult. I realized it would be best to just stop.
So grateful for all our friends and family that have been there for us.
