Every time I take Wyatt out of his crib and we pass by his IV pole he likes to grab his fluid bag and laugh!! Since the fluid is not connected to him anymore and he is just getting his formula now, I let him do this fun activity. It lets time pass by. He finally fell asleep around 9pm and now I am preparing myself to sleep in the nice comfortable chair by the door in a tight little space that the hospital provides. Every four hours he gets his cares from his nurse and every OTHER four hours he gets breathing treatments from the respiratory therapist. So that means him and I will get woken up every two hours.... but I don't think we will get any sleep anyway because Wyatt's neighbor's mother has not stopped talking on the phone since I arrived at 12:30pm and it's now almost 11pm:))) Yipee it's going to be a fun night!!
I am a Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) baby. My diaphragm developed with a hole in it and my organs were misplaced in my chest cavity. The organs pushed on my lungs, causing one lung to be very small. I was born on October 9, 2007 at Johns Hopkins. Now it is three years later: I am saying a bunch of words, I still receive foods through a g-tube and am on oxygen while I sleep. I can't walk yet, but believe I can out scoot anyone! Here is the story of my amazing and patient recovery.

Oh the joy of staying in the hospital. I think we are still trying to catch up on our sleep and we have been home for a week now.
I am glad to hear that Wyatt is doing good. Hopefully you guys will be home soon.
