Feedings have resumed

Sydney's feedings we restarted and they kept the frequency (every 3 hours) but reduced the amount from 3cc to 2cc. So far so good.

Thy X-Ray showed that the Picc line was not where it needed to be so they tried again and did another X-Ray. Still not fixed. They are going to try a third time and if it still doesn't work they will remove it for now and try again in 3 days or so. They're trying to not upset her too much. Normally they would keep trying but they did a test of some cultures they got from one of her tubes and it looks like she may be about to fight another infection. They don't like trying Picc placement if the babies are sick in any way. She's on antibiotics for a few days.

Besides that, the nurse said, "She's a perfect angel and is doing just great. We're the ones that keep messing with her."

We had issues with our PICC line too. Hopefully they will get it in where it's supposed to be. Infections are also part of the package and blood transfusions. We had a few of both. Hang in there. Hope you and Brian are taking care of yourselves as well!
