As in, wow, I can't believe it's been a month since I updated the blog! Slacker. Let's get the medical hoopla out of the way. We had a few Dr appointments.
Brittani was our driver for this appointment. We were happy to get to spend a little time with her. She moved into her dorm this week. (Yes, it's just in Indianapolis, but I feel like she moved to Maine.) So proud of her.
This was at the Pulmonologist, getting his oxygen level checked. Apparently, he thought the lady needed some help working her machine.
We went to the Chiropractor for the first time. It seems to help reflux in some babies. I can't really tell that it did much for Bricen.
I love this picture!!
Pulmonologist downloaded the monitor one last time while we were there. She called back a couple days later and said we could get rid of the monitor!!! Woowhoo! I did have a little bit of a hard time falling asleep the first few nights off the monitor. But I have confidence in the NP that we had been seeing from Pulmonary and I have confidence in medicine but most of all I have to just trust God to watch over him. I don't want to sound ungrateful for this particular answered prayer but I can nooooot wait for the the day that we can say goodbye to the feeding pump.
We also saw speech therapy. To sum things up, I think we got a little too aggressive with our feeding trials and Bricen started losing weight. Everyday it was another ounce or two. I will admit the weight loss was stressing this Mama out! We've made some changes and the scale is going in the right direction. Of course, a lot slower than it was coming off. :0) Lots more to catch up on.
