So... it's been a long day.
By 4pm, Isaac had only eaten 8 ounces.
That's not ok. I'm not ok with that.
We took him to the pediatric urgent care.
And they listened.
They really listened to me.
They agreed that something was wrong.
So now we have been told he needs a swallow study and a developmental review.
I hate that it's taken so long to get what he needs, but I'm happy we're getting somewhere.
We're calling the doctor tomorrow to get these referrals started on, so we can get him better.
I'm adopted, he's in the Air Force, and all we really want is family. After 8 miscarriages, and one failed adoption, this blog is a journal through infertility, adoption, and now parenthood, now that Isaac has filled our baby carriage, and it's about to be filled again with a surprise, successful (so far) pregnancy! It's sometimes blunt, sometimes improper, but always real. This is our story.
i can only imagine the stress! I'm glad someone's finally listening to you and helping you find some answers. I hope its something silly and small and easy to fix!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry that you are having to deal with this, but in the end I hope it leads you to some answers.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad they listened! I hope it's figured out soon and that it's something simple. Thinking about you guys!
ReplyDeleteIs he having bowel movements? I only ask because my neice was born with Hirshprungs (spelling?) disease. She was not eating and also not passing what she ate. It's an intestinal condition. Something to think about. I'm glad you are now on the path to finding out what is going on with him. Hoping that things get better very soon. Poor baby and poor parents. Hugs to you!
ReplyDeleteOh gosh hun. I am glad someone finally listened to you and hope you get some answers for the poor babe.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds so stressful. I'm glad you have a team working on it. Hopefully you'll get to the bottom of it soon.
ReplyDeleteShame babe, that is so stressful! Hope they get it sorted out for you both soon. ((((hugs)))
