We are doing well and each day I feel like Mia gets a little bit better. This last surgery wasn't easy for her and we are finding that she's having a harder time sleeping. This might be because she wakes up uncomfortable or because she is still a bit traumatized from her hospital stay. Anyway, sometimes the only person that can console her is Mom...not even Dad, so pray that her sleeping would get better...it's almost like having a new baby at home again. :( And of course her tummy still isn't quite healed, but getting better, so pray for that and pray also for her eating, she's slowly getting there with her feedings...but she is pretty much refusing all solids still. :( The good news is that she has put on some of the weight she lost from the hospital stay, she dropped 9 ounces when we were there...down to 16 pounds 3 ounces when we came home, but now (1 week later) she is up to 16 pounds 6 ounces...so I feel like we are making good progress even if she isn't eating that well! I know it is just a matter of time...it takes time to heal, but it's no fun to watch her be uncomfortable...and we do give her Tylenol, but we try to make that a last alternative, if nothing else will console her. But we continue to be grateful how well her little body is healing.
