Formula Again

Micah is on formula again!!! He tolerated the pedialyte feed well so now he's on 1/2 pedialyte and 1/2 formula. He's doing well with it. His throat is bothering him, so they sent him to x-ray to see if it is just swelling and I'm just waiting to find out the results of that. He's sleepy, but he's getting sore and he has to wait another 1/2 hour until he can get more meds. Poor Baby!!! Micah is sleeping comfortably now. His nurse is keeping up with his Tylenol so he hasn't been as miserable as he was last night. It's nice seeing him sleeping peacefully. Poor Micah was in so much pain last night he couldn't sleep. Just before midnight I got his nurse and she tried to keep him calm until so she could give him more med. The docs only gave him 1/2 a dose every 4 hours. NOT ENOUGH! So she and another nurse tracked down a doc and made him increase the dose and frequency. You could see and feel the change in him once he was given his meds. He just sagged in relief.
