Just got home late . Havent been out with my family in a while. Got home and refreshed the page immediately. I am SOOOOO thrilled to see that you got good results with the syringe/nipple. I figured even if she's not sucking. The nipple is far enough in her throat that you can very gently squeeze the syringe. I know it takes forever but trust me she will be a pro in no time. I was actually brushing my teeth when I refreshed the thread . Istarted jumping up and down and my husband couldnt understand what I was saying! I kept saying " Yesh! Yesh ! " rinsed my mouth and started telling him Yes ! Yes! She used the nipple syringe!. I googled this about how much to feed and I bumped into a site of handraising chihuahuas and the breeder uses a syringe with this nipple tip . I didnt think this nipple would work but as soon as I attached it ...I thought "OMG Dena has to see this!" I didnt want to explain it , I wanted you to see it! I am THRILLED ,thrilled .You made my day.Heck you made my weekend! Night Baby Emma & Dena Genie,Cookie,Lola ,Angel & Lucky |
I just found this thread tonight and have read each and every word...first off I have to tell you Dena that you are absolutely awesome for doing this for Emma, your heart is pure gold...and I admire your courage and strength. Emma is trying so hard ...what a beautiful, precious gift you have there. I cried...literally sobbed watching the video, I hope and pray she continues to thrive and that she lives a happily ever after life. She, and you deserve it... |
Thats great! Keep up the good work! I know it must be exhausting, but you are doing so wonderful |
Stitches are coming out again... :( |
Just checking in to see how things are going. Do you thing the stiches keep coming out because they can't get them in very well due to her size? If she heals without the stiches have they said if they could do corrective surgery when she is a little bigger? I am sure she is rubbing her face because the stiches are bothering her. She is just so sweet. I will keep you guys in my thoughts and prayers. |
1 Attachment(s) I don't know if it's that they can't get them in well enough... or the rubbing... or the suckling.... I just don't know.... it's just a really tough spot to try to keep still. It pulls so much in that area even when she opens her mouth to yawn... or cry... or anything. :( It's just so frustrating!! I wish I knew what to do for her.............. :( The surgeon can't get in till 1:00 - - so I guess we'll see what he suggests. I'm so worried about infection.................. |

Yeeeaaaa for the weight gain, and that syringe is just ingenious! Poor baby with those darn stitches! I logged on to see emma with my daughter even before my 1st cup of coffee:coffee2:. She was the last thing we saw before bed and the 1st thing when we woke up. You are doing a great job! Sending more prayers to Oklahoma!:hands: |
OH NO!!! I hope there\'s something they can do for her. |
Ohhhh Poor little girl! Are they using disolvable stitches?....Maybe they need to use regular because when she eats she is getting them wet and they are disolving......Just an idea:confused: |
