My poor neglected pooch. Getting shaved at the vet tomorrow because we neglected brushing since Coras been born :-\" finally comfortable and mostly pain free on sedatives! Wahoo!
@magono20 my DS was on oxygen too after he was born. He inhaled amniotic fluid and had trouble with his oxygen levels for a couple of months. He eventually grew out of it and is thriving. It was such an overwhelming experience at the time, breastfeeding was a challenge and I was always worried. Hope your LO is doing well.
@lovethatcolosun Thank you for your kind words, its been a rollar coster thats for sure. LO had the same thing, swallowed some fluid, his blood sugar and oxygen levels plummeted and then had an infection. We just ruled out heart problems, so that has been a relief! Im happy to hear your LO turned out well, we are hoping for the same!
@magono20 - my LO is hooked up to a machine to monitor his heart and breathing because he was 9 weeks early and does periodic breathing - also have to give him caffeine everyday. Sounds like a fire alarm going off when it trips. He is plugged into an outlet 24/7, and we always joke that the baby is charging. When we bath him and we have to unplug, I call him the wireless baby. It really sucks because he is not very portable right now..,can't just bring him with me to grab things I forget..,have to put him down and make a production out of it. Everything else comes to a complete halt when I am holding my boy. He will be on the monitor for at LEAST 2 months at home (was on it for his entire 5 week NICU stay too)
I know it's no longer Friday but this is the first I've been on since Thursday. The first one is our little puppy, LO and DH's arm ( I finally managed yo get one!) and the second one is my parents dog (who was like mine when I still lived at home) and LO before we went on a morning walk. Such cute fur babies ladies!
Re: Fur baby Friday!!
Pure joy on the way to the dog park!
