Kade has been having trouble keeping formula down since last night. It seems that the moment I think we have success, up and out it comes. Pedialyte seems to stay down so we are now mixing 1/2 formula, 1/2 pedialyte. So far so good...he fell asleep about an hour ago and he had 2 ounces in his belly!!!
The vomiting could also be a result of withdrawal. Now that he is off of the narcotics, we need to start weening him off of the drugs that helped ween from the narcotics originally. This could be up to a 2 week process.
Today's goal is to get Kade to drink and keep down anything that he can. The Surgeons are pleased with his progress, and at this point do not think it is necessary to put the feeding tube back in, we just need to keep trying to fill his belly. We pray that his little body accepts this nourishment so that he may continue to amaze us with his progress!!
