(50ml/hr). So they ended up putting a NG tube in instead with a pedialyte drip. Dr. H came in this AM and said one more night and hopefully all the fluids will help along with the hopes of no more fever then tomorrow we should be going home. His mouth is still yucky but looking a bit better. Please pray our baby makes a turn today and gets this virus out of his system!

Hospital Stay
We ended up taking Will in to Dr. H's office at 2:45 yesterday before the weekend just to make sure everything looked okay. Turns out he was super dehydrated and his fever was back up so he felt like pumping fluids was the best thing for him. We got here around 3pm and after two tries got his IV started. We were told it would probably have to be redone eventually but they were going to use it to get some fluids going so that his veins would perk up. Then at 10:45 it had finally been bumped and rubbed enough times that it wiggled out. They poked him five more times and had no luck getting his IV back in. His veins were still too flat after 6hrs of fluids

ReplyDeleteOh no! Poor baby! That makes me so sad! Will has had a rough past couple of months, hasn't he? He looks so miserable. I really really hope he feels better soon!
