Update 2

Today was fairly eventful. The upper GI was cancelled and bloodwork was ordered instead. Screaming ensued because this is a major phobia for Lu, and this pretty much set the tone for the day. Once Lu has had a needle stick she gets super anxious around every doctor or nurse that comes near, which makes for a trying day.

I tried to keep her occupied as much as possible- trips to our old floor, a visit to the gym, visiting the library, multiple trips to the playroom.

Feeds were started around 4 this afternoon finally. Its a slow process after being on gut rest, so we are only running at 15 cc's an hour of 1/2 strength formula. She will gradually work her way up to full strength and speed by tomorrow.

As long as things go well we should be discharged tomorrow sometime!
