Little bumps..

Dahlia was having a good day yesterday. She wasn't however, pooping. Dahlia was being fed super slow through her g-tube and all was going well. Again, except for not pooping. Last night she started spitting up. Not a lot but enough to be concerned. She continued to spit up this morning and so they took and X-ray of her chest and abdomen. From what the nurse was able to tell us was that her chest X-ray looked fine. I think if there was something wrong, they would have told us by now. The X-ray of her abdomen however shows there is a lot of poop. So they decided to stop the feeding pump until she goes.

She has been pooping just a tiny bit but she needs to go more. I am thinking that she has been afraid to push when she has to poop because it might hurt her incisions.

So we are waiting to hear from the doctor so that they can tell us in any better detail what they saw in the X-rays.

So today she is feeling no so good. She's been grumpy and tired. My poor baby needs a break.

Aside from that, everything else seems to be going well. Its just that since her G.I. tract (any ones for that matter) is not tip top, it seems to affect everything else, heart rate, breathing rate and so on.

Hope to have better news tomorrow or even sooner...
