Lia's postoperative doctor visit



We went back to Children's Medical Center today for Lia's postop visit with the surgeons. Lia looked awesome. We had to have another chest Xray, more labwork, weight, BP, and O2 sat reading. They said it all checked out great. She's gaining weight (back up to her birth weight of 7lbs). They were impressed with the volume she's now able to nipple feed. We still have in the feeding tube, but she's improving every day with her nippling. She threw a nice fit when they tried to get her blood pressure and O2 sat. We think it could be her attitude that's helped her do so well through this.

Yesterday Lia went on her first road trip to Mimi and Granddaddy's house in Sulphur Springs. We needed to get out of here while we had two wonderful ladies come and clean our house. We all did pretty well on the trip. It's always fun at Mimi and Granddaddy's...

Lia just continues to do so well. She's such a joy to all of us. We are starting to get down a routine here at the house. It's been a good transition from the hospital to home. We are so glad have our family together again.
