Phew, what a busy week we had this last week!! Three doctor appointments (pediatrician and gastro specialist), two home nurse visits, and a couple of rough nights. Lyla is up to 5lbs 8oz, which means that she has managed to gain 10oz in the last 8 weeks. I can't believe it's been 8 weeks already! Lyla's breathing "spells" increased this last week, so we now have oxygen at the house to administer to her when she needs it. She's not to fond of anything touching her nose (including my kisses) so she doesn't seem to like the nasal canula very much, but it seems to help her out during feedings, so she doesn't fight it too much. The specialist recommended that we give the ng tube a try for feedings. I don't want her to forgot how to eat, so I am willing to give the ng tube a try in conjuction with oral feedings...so, we will see how things go next week.
