and it felt so good to be in my own bed last night!! It was a crazy day yesterday trying to get all our EN supplies delivered to our house due to mix ups and the crazy weather we had. Didn't get S hooked up for feeding until about 8:30.
S is doing really well with the tube insertion. His dad actually does it for him and he still gets nervous right beforehand but tolerates it well. Last night he woke twice to poop and then this morning his stomach was killing him and he pooped 3 more times with blood. I talked to his doctor this morning and he thinks it's just too much for his little tummy. He wants to switch him to Peptamen Jr. which has a higher caloric value than Elecare which means he should need less of it and we can slow the rate down on the pump and give it to him slower. The rollercoaster ride continues......
