A WHOLE 2 WEEKS!!!!!

AS OF TODAY MICAH HAS BEEN HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL FOR A WHOLE TWO WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS THE LONGEST HE'S BEEN HOME SINCE NOVEMBER 2ND!!!!!!! HE IS STILL DOING AWESOME!!!!! TOLERATING HIS FEEDS AND EVEN ROLLING OVER!!!!!!!! HE IS MAKING AWESOME PROGRESS!!!!!!! HE'S NOT DUE BACK IN THE HOSPITAL FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER MONTH, SO I'M REALLY HOPING HE MAKES IT THAT LONG!!!!!!!!!!

6 Whole Months!!!!!

Wow....6 months ago I was in a hospital in Germany recovering from an emergency c-section...I had just given birth to a beautiful baby boy (though I hadn't seen him) at 5lbs...Although it has been an incredibly bumping 6 months, with many many many ups and downs, I wouldn't trade my sweet little Micah man for the world...Especially since, while I wrote this, he rolled over for the first time!!!!!!!

Home again....

Micah came home last night. After about 3 nights of not sleeping, then a night in the hospital, he slept all day yesterday and all last night. He looks a million times better this morning. He was up at about 5 am, which is fine because Jason had PT so I was up anyway.

Back In Boston

They checked out Micah at the drs. Nothing significant going on other than the fever. They did however need him to go back to Boston to have the feeding tube put back in. Susanne and Rachel went down with Micah. There isn't anyone there to do it tonight, so they are admitting Micah for the night and doing the NJ tube tomorrow. They're starting him on an IV to give him the fluids he needs in the meantime. Once Micah is admitted, Susanne and Rachel will head home.

Please pray this will be a quick stay.

Going to the pediatricians

We're getting the three older kiddos ready to go to Oma's house. Micah's pediatrician's office has an opening this morning so we are taking him in, he still has a fever and he managed to yank his NJ tube. Hopefully they will be able to place it again, NJs are harder to place than NGs. They have no problem placing NG tubes. And last night was beyond horrible. Micah was crying and fussing all night long, which is bad in itself, but last night I managed to develop an ear infection. It's one of those where any sound over a whisper is like jamming a hot poker in your ear. This is going to be a long day.

Still home....but not very happy

The last few nights Micah has been awake and mad, which of course leaves us awake. This morning he spiked a fever. It started at 100 degrees and now it's up to 101 degrees. He has no other symptoms other than fever and misery. I'm thinking it's because he's teething (my big kids did the same when they teethed) but to be on the safe side I called Dr. Brown and Dr. Gates' office and spoke with a Pharmacist. They all agrees, separately, to just alternate the Tylenol and Motrin for the day. Dr. Brown and Dr. Gates' office are going to call tomorrow to check on him. As long as he doesn't develop any other symptoms he doesn't need to go to the ER. I am really praying this is nothing serious, he hasn't even been home for a week. PLEASE PRAY!!!!
