Today's update

So today has been an okay day. She lost 7oz of weight from yesterday but we think that is mostly bc she did not have a bm for two days and her tummy was so distended. Then we took our three steps back again.. They had to raise her oxygen. They tried giving breathing treatments but can't give a whole one due to her heart. Her hb gets way to high and it can send her in heart failure. We are praying her amonia does not turn into bacterial. Right now it is viral. (Got told she had it last night) Then we got some blood values that came back crappy. Not for infection but for her co2 levels. they are not sure if she has some other problem that is causing it. Possibly polystenosis (sp?) or something else that i can't remember. We will know more about that at a later time. I believe they are going to follow up on it on monday or so. But the pedi says we might not have "true" answers until she is 4-6wks old. She spiked a fever one time today but but she has not had one since. Also we are finally done with JAUNDICE! We have one more heel prick in a week to ensure it is not coming back on her but her levels were 3! PRAISE God! That is about it. I can't remember all of it as i am so freaking tired and exhausted.
