She pooped!

YAY!  It has been a few days since she went last so they gave her some medication to help her a few days ago, but it wasn't workin.  Welp she went "real good" on the midnight shift last night and everybody was excited.  We had 2 short visits today because 1. we didn't time it right (we have to leave during shift change from 7-7:30) and 2.  We sometimes get those stinky nurses that follow the rules and kick us out after 10 minutes when we have our son because "little kids tend to get out of hand".  Mind you they said that to me as he sat in a chair playing a game on mute.  You would have never even known he was there. 

We did find out that she is doing so well that they are going to remove one of her 2 chest tubes tomorrow.  GREAT NEWS!  But, for me and my husband it is also very scary.  For those asking about her weight (it was more than just you Jules) I finally remembered to ask tonight and she weighs 2lb 7oz now :)  Her feedings have been upped to 6cc's now and she's still tolerating them well.  They may back off on her fluids a bit because she is retaining too much which means she most likely doesn't need as much as they are giving her.

Please keep your prayers coming for me as well.  I have to go back to the doctor again tomorrow because my legs are swelling up UGH!  I swear as soon as I get one problem solved another appears and I'm becoming paranoid.  I've never had so many problems in my life.  I consider myself a very healthy person, I have no else problems besides asthma and a few female things.
