Well, I bought the premie size onesies and no-go. She's still able to get around the bottom to her sutures. So I had to let her sleep with the e-collar. I didn't know what else to do. I kept picturing waking up and her tummy all ripped apart. This morning, I let her come lay with me, I took off her e-collar, and the mouth went straight to the stitches. So back on with the e-collar today. I felt so bad for her, but I can tell that she feels better because she was much more lively.

I am sooooooooooooo glad that is over.
