So, after 4 days of breathing treatments at home, we have taken up residence at Cabrini Hospital. My poor baby has been on oxygen since Sunday and has pneumonia. We have been here 48 hours and probably will be here another day, but it just makes me so thankful that I dont have a terminally sick baby. These 2 days have been so trying on me and our family, and yet, its only going to be a few days. JG loves it here, and when he comes up here, loves to jump on the frog feet in the room (yes there are frog prints on the floors.) G laughs and laughs at him, and it gives her a nice pick me up. The nurses and techs have fallen in love with her, and will stop several times a day just to make her laugh. She is happy and overall doing better.
So, we are cosleepers with out babies. I know there are several different opinions about this, but thats what works best for us, as I am so paranoid about a baby stop breathing. JG now 3, has been in his big boy bed since he was 1 (even though until Gianna came, he liked to come in our bed in the middle of the night.) Well, I got fussed at last night for putting baby on the couch bed with me, but after 48 hours of NO sleep, and people coming in a and waking her up 1010101010 times at night, we both had a nice night rest, and my mood and spirits are much lifted today.
As I obsessively watch her oxygen stat monitor, I am so thankful I live now and not 100 years ago.
Here are a few pics I could not pass up! LOVE LOVE LOVE my hubby and kids
That cannot be fun. Hope she gets better soon. And you all get a good nights sleep.
