Weekend Update

So last night I updated BabyBug’s Facebook post and forgot to copy it here. Here’s what I wrote last night at around 7:30 or 8PM: “Leah just clocked in at 102.7 degrees. She responded pretty quickly to a cool cloth and no blankets and is down to 100.3, but still want to know why she has a fever at all. She was awake several times today, although she is still Stoned Baby.”

She had no fever all day today but when the night nurse took her temp it was over 102 degrees again, although on the more open arm it was a little over 100 degrees. She was bundled again so that’s probably what’s causing the fevers. Keeping an eye on it.

The docs have been decreasing Leah’s sedatives and painkillers today to prepare her for extubation tomorrow (fingers crossed!!!!) and since Leah is more aware she has been gagging a bit – also she has a lot of thick secretions and I’m sure that doesn’t help. Poor sweetheart.

Esophagram did not happen on Friday, by the way. It was rescheduled for tomorrow on account of the re-intubation. We’ll see how it goes!
