Hugs from Riley to Sophie Hi - When we got Riley on Christmas Eve, we went through very similar experiences. It was so scary... so I can definitely sympathize with you. We just had to keep on top of the situation with Nutri-Stat and force-feeding.
One thing I want to be careful about: on those days she seems particularly playful, still make sure you are giving the Nutri-Stat and force-feeding if she isn't eating enough. When she's playful, she uses a lot of energy and can easily end up in another hypoglycemic episdoe. We went through this with Riley.
It took about 6 weeks or so before Riley was eating as much as she should. She hasn't had a hypo episode since the third.
Miss Sophie is just a little baby as well and needs your special care. I'm so glad to hear she is doing better and that you and your husband are willing to do what it takes to care for her.
Keep us posted on her progress!!
