Today was a good day Mike and I went in to see Kayla around 2pm, I had gotten a call earlier from the doctors saying her heart sounded a lot better today. We are hoping and praying that means that after her antibiotic Kayla's heart vessel has closed on it's own. We won't know for sure until the doctor comes in to do an ultrasound on her heart tomorrow. The only down side to today was that Kayla wasn't taking her feedings well, she had spit up what they had given her in the morning. Because she did spit that up they want to wait on her feedings until the heart vessel is figured out. So we pray now that the vessel will be closed tomorrow and they can try and start feeding her my milk again. Then hopefully she will take the feedings just fine and Kayla will start gaining some weight. The other wonderful thing about today was that Kayla was able to stop her photo therapy, the jaundice lights they have been keeping on her since her first day. She was able to have her little sunglasses off all day and now gets a bed cover for when she sleeps, she's just getting better and better. :)
I felt like mom today when I got to change Kayla's diaper for the first time, just a wet one, is it weird that I look forward to changing a poopy diaper??
