Good Day

Short and sweet update - Campbell's bilirubin number was down more than a point in a day, and she's up two ounces in weight. Yay! Garett's oral surgery went well - after we got through the initial clotting phase... he was supposed to have clotted in a couple of hours, but change his gauze for seven hours just to keep the wound clear. By 12 hours post-op, he was still bleeding, so he had to get up every hour last night to change the gauze. Thankfully, today the bleeding was under control, and Garett's been really great helping me with everything. We were all over the place today - Medical Center of Lewisville for the bili screen, Plano Presby for an unexpected doc visit for me (everythings fine, just needed to get checked out), back to the pediatrician for the weight test. Even though he's on pain meds and couldn't be driving, he was a real trooper and ran to all the places with me.

We're just going to keep doing what we're doing with Campbell, and hope her weight gain continues up and bili number continues down.
