| My Zoey had bladder stones! I was out of town with my Zoey and she began to squat constantly without any pee coming out. It got to the point where she could not walk anymore. She was being treated for a urinary tract infection 4 days earlier. It was 10:00 p.m. on a Friday night so I had to find an emergency 24 hour hospital. I took her in and they found 3 large stones in her bladder. They removed them on Saturday. I cried the whole weekend!! I picked her up on Sunday with a lamp shade around her neck. We sent the stones in to get analyzed and she had struvite stones which are knowned to return. Zoey is still on a high dose of antibiotics and has to have a needle down her bladder next week to make sure the bacteria is gone. She is now on prescription urinary food. It makes her thirsty and she drinks lots of water which is good. Just thought I should put this out there in case anyone else sees these symptoms on their babies!! Zoey got her stitches out yesterday and is doing great!!

| Thank you all so much for your get well wishes. I forgot to add that Zoey also had an episiotomy on her vagina because they could not fit the catheter in her urinary tract so she had stitches there too! She has been such a trooper during all of this!! I'm so glad that part is over....now it's all preventative work and I will do anything I can to keep her from going through all of that again!!
