Thank you again for all your prayers.
Simeon is eating great and getting chubby before our eyes. (although, it might be the fluids they pumped into him at this point) I am supplementing my breastmilk with formula and feeding him every 3 hours.
We will have a nurse coming daily to weigh him for the next 2 weeks, and then every other day after that and hopefully then weekly after that. Weekly pediatrition appts and an appointment with his Urologist on September 5th. He'll need some extra tests done that week, loooong tests, including one I hate, where they strap him to a table and insert dye into him and watch where the obstruction is in his ureter. That test takes 50 minutes and he looks at me, screaming, like "why won't you pick me up mama?"
I think his urinary tract infection was probably there for quite a while, as today he has been laughing, giggling and smiling like crazy!! He has never been a very smily baby. Poor baby. Who knows how long he's been feeling crappy. Hopefully this is it, a blessing in disguise!
The nurses were wonderful, we even got to see some of the same ones we had when we were there in May for his lip surgery.
We also found out he is anemic and so are supplementing with iron---yuck--He hates that bottle, drinks it sloooooowly...
Thank you again for your prayers, they mean the world to us.
I'll try to post pictures later this week!
