HI.

Morning mod'ers.
I'm pretty tired.
Tori's doing great.
Sleeps, eats, plays on schedule everyday. I've finally mastered her 3 hour schedule.
I live in Pittsburgh, PA--have any of you used Apria healthcare for medical equipment and supplies?
I ordered leads for her monitor last thursday. They still aren't here. So I call yesterday....I had to reorder because someone on Apria's end messed up. Which is fine, but it takes 3-5 business days to get the leads via ups. This monitor is driving me nuts. I panic when it goes off. Not panic, but jump to make sure she's still breathing.
Bah...I need a nap!
Have a good day everyone!
Liz
3hours later....imagine that....apria called for my copay before sending the leads that take 3-5 business days to get here. I said dude, you have my visa numbers...charge the $3.50 to that. Thank you apria for finally processing my order. jerks.

Dr's appointment went well. She hit 5 lb's, 1oz. 5 pounds?! 17.5" long. 17??!! Amazing. Our Dr. is amazing, he is very nice, and explained everything wonderfully. Dumb nurse, 'accidentally' ripped one of her leads off, not only once, but twice. Hearing that monitor go off in a different room at the dr's office threw me into panic mode.
Dr. Kahill, had nothing but wonderful things to say...she has good color, her eyes are wide, very alert, big belly, eating good, gaining good, she looks good. Next appt Feb 4 at 9.30am.
We got home and her monitor went off twice telling us she wasn't breathing.....Jesus, just as I typed that the thing went off again. Color's good, she's still breathing.
Next feeding is at 5-I am changing the leads. Give me a God damn heart attack.
She's come such a long way....490g's now 5lb's 11.5" to 17.5" Amen!
Jen-Mike is doing good. He loves his little girl. He kangaroo's with her, chnges diapers, feeds her, medicates her, and takes care of the 11pm, 2am, and 5am feedings. Thank Gosh. It is his strength that got me through this. I love this man for loving me and Tori. I wouldn't change anything.
Gotta go get meds ready-
Love and light to you all,
Liz

She's home.
Eye test, still level 1 rop in left eye, due to prematurity.
Purposley putting her to my right, turning her head to the left, and seeing what she does. She's consistantly turning her head to the right. We need to break that habit.
All I know is she's home. On o2 and resp monitor, but it's all good. Home nursing coming tomorrow to check up on her, and first appointment with her pediatrition Friday.
God is good.
Love and light,
Liz

SLIGHTLY DISGUSTED
|
|
Jan 04, 2010 02:15pm (EST)
nested all weekend, only to be told this morning(monday, the day she was supposed to come home) she's not ready to come home.
I'm frustrated, sleepy, miserable, and am being reassured by all doc's and PA's she will be home on Wednesday.
Had an ekg this morning...still has a slight hole in her heart, making her left chamber pump more blood to her lungs. Another eye test tomorrow to see how her rop is doing, for all we know it went away.
our nicu is closing, everything is being torn down, I will never forget our first day there, our corner, most critical baby that day. I will never forget feeling the pain of the parents whos child passed away one station away from Tori. You know I gave that family my phone number, and explained I lost my son, I never have heard from them. Our nurses are being phased out to the new hospital, yes the same women that save my kids life.
many tears being shed in our nicu.
love and light-
Liz

Morning...
Panic has officially set in. We are nesting tonight and tomorrow, assuming our freakin equipment(oxygen, monitors), show up at the house today. aholes, we could have started this days ago if it wasn't for the holidays.
I'm super scared, and in near panic mode.
Talk soon people-
Love and light-Liz

Hey everybody,
I hope you all had a good holiday! Mine was great. My little sister is great! Her fundraising and donation to the march of dimes still has me bewildered. I never thought my 25 years old sister had the brain capacity to do such a thing. She managed to gather just under a grand and Mastercard doubled her donation due to November is preemie awareness month. In memory of my son(2003), and in honor of Tori(who is now 94 days old now). I don't believe it.
My husband(no cyring, no crying, liz)...My husband got me a beautiful ring. It's a mother/family ring with Mikey's and Tori's birthstones in it. Who in the hell would remember to put Mikey's stone in there? ha! Jeese o man. This man truly loves me. I think this is the first time in my life, that I can fully trust someone, and allow myself to fully love him.
I miss my son. (nocrying,nocrying) He'd be 6 this year. a 6 year old at Christmas ripping everything open. That would have been funny, I'm sure. I often wander how I will explain Mikey to Tori?
ok, instead of crying, I'm gonna go shove my face with Christmas cookies now.
I love you guys, and happy holidays!
Love and light--
Liz
Aww $%^&....I almost forgot....TORI'S IN A BIG GIRL BED NOW!!!!!
