 Update
Our baby girl is still doing well, holding her own. I am getting much better with the tube feeding now. She did not gain any weight today, but did not lose either -- still at 3.8 oz. She is peeing and pooping well at every feeding. She seems strong, sort of swims around on her blanket. I have a stuffed toy in with her that she likes to burrow under to sleep. Keeping her plenty warm and every 2 hr. feedings. I am trying to hold her a lot too, petting her and hopefully giving her a sense of security.
I saw her cleft today -- it scares me a bit. It was supposed to be a pin hole? Looks like the whole roof of her mouth is opened up, right down the middle. That is probably why the vets said nothing in her mouth. Her little nose is pink instead of black. Is that something that goes with the cleft palate?
Getting tired and will probably go try to catch a nap. I have an hour before next feeding. |
