<br>
Nothing like an extended blog vacation...but spring is here and it is time to dust this thing off and get back to blogging! I'll do a brief catch up and then bombard you with pictures :)<br>
<br>
The last time I blogged we were closing in on our 1 year Failure to Thrive diagnoses, we've passed that as well as our g tube/nissen surgery anniversary, & are coming up on our gj tube anniversary. Claiborne had a 5 day hospital stay right before Christmas with RSV, while it wasn't fun we had lots of visitors to the Peds floor that week and got home right before Christmas. We had a very quiet Christmas at home because we did not want to expose C to any germs. Poor Hudson had his first ear infection, a double at that, just 2 hours after we were discharged! I felt so bad for him, apparently his ear had been hurting for a few days but I had been at the hospital and he was shuffled between grandparents so we just didn't realize!<br>
<br>
Thankfully everyone has been pretty healthy since then! C, my mom, & I went up to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia at the beginning of February for a GI Motility consult. It was absolutely amazing! We tried to stay at the Ronald McDonald House but they were full. Claiborne's 1st appointment was at 7:30am so we caught the 7AM shuttle from the hotel to the hospital. While walking around to the radiology suite my mom and I both commented on how quiet and peaceful it was, totally different than VCU. For her 1st procedure they put radiation in her honey thick formula and had her drink it, they then strapped her down and we watched her stomach and esophagus for about 45 minutes. She was such a trooper and held my mom's hand the whole time! Afterwards we had some time so we had a quick breakfast in the cafeteria and then headed up to GI. We met with the NP first and then the DR, from her test in the morning they determined that she is re-fluxing past her Nissen Fundoplication, which if you remember she had surgery for last Feb. to make it impossible for her to reflux, and that her stomach is extremely slow emptying, this is called gastroparesis. So we added a new medicine and scheduled a follow up which happens to be on MONDAY. I am interested to see if they think that the medicine is helping or if we change things up again.<br>
<br>
Hudson has been super busy playing soccer and basketball during the fall and winter. I cannot believe that he turned 7 and became a little man overnight. He is ready for summer break and we are all ready for river season.<br>

Well it's November and that means we are quickly approaching Claiborne's first anniversary with FTT (failure to thrive). November 5th of 2014 is a day that will be burned in my mind forever, it's the day of C's first hospitalization. It marks the beginning of her journey.<br />
<br />
While that first 4 days in the hospital seems so long ago I remember it like it was yesterday. Claiborne hadn't been able to keep anything down all day, I had gotten her into the Dr's office just before it closed and it was decided that we should give her pedialyte at her bedtime bottle. Poor girl couldn't even keep that down so they sent us to the ER.<br />
<br />
I remember thinking how hard it was when they decided to only give her IV fluids, how she screamed because she was hungry, the guilt of pumping while sitting next to her. Today I would give anything for Claiborne to cry out in hunger, to be able to tell me that she is hungry or full. <br />
<br />
Things are different today than they were a year ago, and honestly I believe that I have a happier child today than I did last year. Claiborne is growing and crawling and above all happy. While I would give anything to take away all that she has gone through I am so glad that she is gotten to a point where when people ask me how she is doing I can say "great!" and it not be fake. <br />
<br />
Claiborne weighed 10lbs 5oz (at the time of admission) at almost 4 months old, she lost 10% of her body weight while in the hospital that first time. Today she weighs 18lbs 8ozs at 15 1/2 months! She has gained 8 pounds this year!<br />
<br />
Every doctor we see is just so impressed with our girl and how amazing she is! I am so grateful for how happy she is, I think that makes everything better :) She just learned how to crawl and is working hard in Speech, PT, and Feeding Clinic! We are anxiously waiting to hear if she'll say mama or dada first! She still gets her feeds through her GJ tube but is eating 3 small meals a day which she loves.<br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So it has been awhile since I've given y'all an update on Miss Claiborne! We had a great summer, only 1 ER visit back in July, I count that as a win! C has been so happy this summer, she is gaining weight and doing her best to try and eat us out of house and home!</div>

Also in July she had her third MBS (modified Barium Swallow) done. As usually Claiborne knew she was being "watched" and did not do any of the things we normally see from her when she eats! The little stinker ever stopped aspirating as she fatigued which shouldn't have happened...we were able to figure out that because of the way she was sitting she was bending her neck down to protect her airway. While smart on her part it left us without a great picture so to speak of what is happening when she eats or drinks. We did see that she is backing up food in her esophagus when she eats solids. After watching her study her GI called and said the next move would be to look into motility problems, something he does not do.<br />

So after her Dr's message I must admit that I did not call him back right away...I mean she was doing so well and I honestly wasn't ready to add another specialist into the mix.<br />

Spring forward to last week...Monday I finally took C in to see her GI DR to not only have a follow up but also talk about motility. First of all he thought C looked fantastic in regards to her weight! Now onto the discussion I had been hesitant to have...a new pediatric motility gi DR had recently come to Richmond but not only had I heard negative things but C's DR said he wouldn't refer us to him because all of the patients he had already referred had called back angry and upset. So I thought oh ok we will go to UVA, nope, the closest place that has the specialist that she needs is Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. That was a shock! He told me to go home, do my research on the DRs and that he would make the referral when we were ready.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Tuesday we had Feeding Clinic, which is probably Claiborne's favorite day of the week. Her therapist let her try drinking thickened formula from a straw...she immediately started choking and we could hear a clunking sound as the liquid moved down to her stomach. Now, I have heard this sound before, anytime she would get water in her mouth either form the tub or pool it would make this sound. We immediately stopped, I think her therapist was trying not to scare me because she remained pretty calm and said she would talk to the head NP the next day.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Wednesday night I got a voicemail from the NP saying they had gotten me into the DR here at VCU, Mack and I decided to talk with her GI in the morning before making a decision. The NP called again Thursday morning at 6:30, now I was kind of freaked out, I mean were they that concerned with what had happened Tuesday that they had pulled all these strings to get C in? We talked with her DR and he said we should at least speak with the DR and that we can always get a second opinion. So we have that appointment next week.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Thursday night I pulled C out of the bath and noticed she had an abscess right by her tube, I quickly sent pictures to her nurses who said we should go to the ER. I also talked to the GI on call and we decided to try warm compresses and go see him 1st thing in the morning. She once again has a staph infection so she is back on Cipro...ugh poor girl can not catch a break.</div>

That brings us to tomorrow, tomorrow Claiborne will have her GJ tube changed out for a new one. This should have been done back in June or July but we were all hoping that we would be putting in a G tube which is not happening. We also ran into trouble when trying to order a new GJ tube through the home health companies and ended up having to order it directly to the hospital. This procedure is done by Interventional Radiology and she will have to be under anesthesia which will buy us at least 1 night in the hospital. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So please send us some good vibes that Claiborne's procedure goes well and also that her appointment next week goes well also.</div>

Well it happened...she turned 1! I was such a mix of emotions on her birthday. We had a great little party at the River with our family! The theme of course was crabs and while C did not partake in any the adults enjoyed themselves. While I am sad that year one went so fast I am excited and hopeful for this next year in Claiborne's life!<br />

We have been anything but lazy over here in the Lindsey house! Claiborne has been enjoying the pool, she loves to splash and watch the big kids. We've been going to the river when we can and are so lucky that we have a community pool that Claiborne can swim in.<br />
<br />
Hudson finished Kindergarten in the middle of June and has been busy with swim lessons, lacrosse camp, VBS, and tennis camp....I cannot keep up with him! He is loving being home with us and has been a great help with sissy.<br />
<br />
In the beginning of June Claiborne was once again in the hospital but this time it was a short trip for some fluids thank goodness. When C gets sick her body has to burn calories in order to fight off infection which is in her case causes severe dehydration because she cannot afford to spare any extra calories.<br />
<br />
On a happy note our sweet girl was Baptized on June 21st. She is very blessed to have 3 incredible Godparents looking out for her.<br />

Lastly, I snuck into her room the other day and it hit me that babies don't keep. We are in the final countdown to her 1st birthday on Saturday and I am just not ready. I stopped aging her back in November when all of this started so I cannot comprehend the fact that she is turning 1.</div>

Well I have to admit that things at home had been going really well since Claiborne's last hospital stay, so great that I forgot how quickly things can change. What started out as rainy morning where I thought C was just sleeping in like the rest of us turned into a 3 day hospital stay. I knew she wasn't feeling well when she slept on me for 2 hours that morning, she does not snuggle. She then fell asleep on my dad after playing for maybe 15 minutes. I tried to rationalize and tell myself that it was just a gloomy day...we all just wanted to be curled up in bed! Finally I took her temp and it was up to 100.6, which for her is high, off to the Dr we went.<br />
<br />
They sent us to the ER from there and well I knew we wouldn't be going home at that point. She had a couple xrays which didn't show anything but since she was so dehydrated they wanted us to stay so she could get fluids. One of the reasons we have to be so careful when she gets sick is because while her body is trying to fight off infections it is burning precious calories that she cannot afford to lose. Failure to thrive is a tricky thing, we are constantly walking a fine line regarding her caloric intake.<br />
<br />
Okay, back to Claiborne! Around 12:30am C had an ultrasound of her belly, when the on call radiologist read it he saw an abscess. When the Drs made rounds we started hearing things like emergency surgery! I'm usually the calm one, the stoic one, but when someone starts talking about cutting into my child that scared the shit out of me. We waited all day for the surgeon, I had given up hope that we would speak to the surgeon Friday when she showed up at nearly 11pm. On her way in she had run into a family friend of ours who happens to be a radiologist at the hospital, she works with a lot of children and her opinion was that it was not an abscess and did not require anything other than heavy doses of antibiotics. Our surgeon agreed and so I quickly retreated from the ledge I had been balancing on. They put her on IV antibiotics and by Saturday late afternoon she was sleeping in her own crib.<br />
<br />
If you have ever wondered why Richmond needs a real Children's Hospital what we went through last weekend is a perfect example. I have no doubt that had we gone to any other hospital in Richmond they would have operated on her, thank goodness we went to the one where all of C's Drs are affiliated. Every night in the city of Richmond there is only 1 radiologist on call for the hospitals to rely on. There is only 1 general pediatric surgeon practice and they cover 4 hospitals and are given 24 hours to respond to surgical pages. This is not and should not be acceptable in a city this size, what if Claiborne had actually needed emergency surgery before the surgeon had answered her page? Who would have been operating on her?<br />

We paid down a bill or two which might not seem like much but believe me every little bit helps!<br />
<br />
It has been 8 weeks since Claiborne got her GJ tube and she has been super happy! I mean a changed baby! Her demeanor is so much better and she is gaining weight like a good girl! The only point of concern has been the fact that she has had 5 different staph infections since getting the tube and has had horrible granulation tissue around her site. We have been on every antibiotic! Her GI doctor has consulted with infectious diseases up at UVA and we are aggressively treating it this week, so fingers crossed we can clear it up!<br />
<br />
About 2 weeks ago we also had C's blood drawn for 2 genetic tests, Fragile X and Microarray, it will take 6-8 weeks to get the results and so far I have not obsessed over it. Whatever they tell us, even if they don't give us any answers it was the right next move. The hardest part about a failure to thrive diagnoses is that there are very few answers as to why this is happening to her.<br />

Now that the weather is better we've been going to the river :) This girl loves hanging out at the pool! I did find out that she cannot get in a river, lake, or ocean because ya know she has a hole in her body ;) She doesn't seem to mind though!<br />

<br />
As you all know Claiborne has been in and out of the hospital since November and we are still fighting to understand what is going on with her sweet little body. During our last 9 day stay a few weeks ago Mack and I were starting to contemplate how we were going to pay the mounding medical bills. We are both not great at asking for help, while we both have worked hard to provide a nice life for Hudson and Claiborne we were in noway prepared for this. I was laid off shortly after Claiborne's g tube surgery in February and cannot go back to work at this point due to all the appointments and therapies that Claiborne has.<br />
<br />
While sitting in the hospital I got the nicest email from two friends who wanted to help. Ashley and I went to high school and college together and I met her sister in law Jen several years ago through one of my best friends. Jen began selling Arbonne and then so did Ashley, through Arbonne they have setup an online fundraiser to help us with our medical bills! These ladies have earned gold stars in my book!<br />

If you follow me on Instagram and Facebook you know that Claiborne just spent 9 days in the hospital for what started out as a GI bug. There were ups and downs and just when we thought we were going home we ended up staying longer than anyone expected.<br />
<br />
It all started 2 Thursdays ago, just a reminder that b/c of her surgery she cannot throw up, Claiborne began having diarrhea in the morning that continued throughout the day. We went to the pediatrician but she seemed to check out okay. The next day she was still the same so when our nurse came she and I called the doctor together. We decided to lay off on her feeds and try pedialyte after a few hours, if she still could not handle that we were most likely going to be sent to the ER. Well she couldn't handle the pedialyte so as soon as I grabbed Hudson off the bus I dropped him off at a friends and headed to the ER.<br />
<br />
Of course when we go there she no longer had her 102 fever and was just as pleasant as can be ;) She had an xray which showed a ton of gas in her belly that was having a hard time moving out even with venting (how a tubie releases gas), they tried giving her a very small dose of pedialyte and she immediately had diarrhea so it was up to the 6th floor we went.<br />
<br />
Mack and I have become very fond of the 6th floor nurses and they all love Claiborne. As much as we hate being admitted it is very comforting when the nurses are familiar with not only us but Claiborne as well. Since C was considered contagious we were able to have a private room which meant we could bring the air mattress (it's the little things people)!<br />
<br />
The only thing C was getting at this point was IV fluids, the goal was to let her body rest and then slowly start with pedialyte and move up to full strength formula at her normal rate of 55mL an hour. Saturday was by far the worst day, she had now not had any food for over 24 hours and boy did she let us know her displeasure. She screamed inconsolably for 9 hours! They tried tylenol and motrin to no avail. It was a cry I never wish to hear again, a mix of pain, anger, hunger, and tiredness. They finally gave her some morphine and she settled down. By Sunday night we had moved to half strength formula at a rate of 25mL and we increased by 10mL every 4 hours. When she got close to 55 she began retching....think dry heaving but 10x worse.<br />
<br />
They immediately stopped feeding her to let her body rest. At this point we were all just thinking that she was still fighting the GI bug and her body needed some more time to rest. Sunday night we started the feeds again and she again seemed to do fine. Monday when we moved to full strength she was ok until we got to 50mL and then she started retching again, this time it scared me so badly that I yanked the emergency cord out of the wall! Food is stopped again and now we are told that no matter what we will not be sent home until she can tolerate her full feed. The next step was a change in her formula since C had recently become allergic to all foods to see if maybe somehow she had developed an allergy to alimentum. So we tried the Elecare and once again as soon as we got close to 50 she began retching.<br />
<br />
At this point I have to admit I was starting to lose my mind a little bit, I just wanted to know why my baby couldn't "eat." They sent C to have another upper GI done to see if maybe her Nissen had slipped, poor girl is so used to getting a bottle when she sees the radiology ladies that she was super disappointed when they put the barium through her tube. They did not see anything on the upper GI that would be causing her to retch, she also retched after the barium...yuck!<br />
<br />
Her GI prepared us to maybe switch her from a g tube to a gj tube, this would be a last resort in order to keep her nourished. She was receiving formula at a rate of 20mL per hour at this point which is not enough nourishment or calories for a baby her age, so this became our primary concern. Thursday she had an MRI of her brain to see if maybe there was something going on that could shed some light on her overall situation ( we had already been in talks with her neurologist about doing the MRI so we just decided that since she was already in the hospital & had to be sedated we should go ahead and do it.)<br />
<br />
Friday we went ahead and switched her from the g tube to the gj tube, which again required her to be sedated. The gj tube goes past her stomach and into her intestines, completely bypassing her stomach. The conclusion was that her stomach was having a hard time emptying the way it should after the bug, so we are giving it a chance to rest. In 3 months when it is time to change the gj tube we might put the g tube back in....<br />
<br />
They didn't waste anytime getting her up to her goal and thank goodness she tolerated it like a champ and we got to go home Saturday afternoon. We had a follow up on Monday with GI, while there I ran into the neurologist and she ran down to her office to read the MRI for me, while Claiborne does have some swelling in her head it is not affecting any part of her brain. She most likely will not have any issues other than maybe a slightly larger head.<br />
<br />
Our next steps are to see the allergist who we had to cancel on due to C being sick and we have made an appointment to see a pediatric geneticist. We are unsure if we are going to test her for the broad gambit of genetic disorders because frankly we might not be able to do anything about what we find out, for example we could find out that she carries the alzheimer gene or the breast cancer gene, I am not sure I want to know that information at this stage in her life or mine. If the doctor thinks she has xy or z then yes we most likely will test for specific disorders but it will not be right away and we will undergo counseling both before and after. This is a highly personal decision, one that we do not take lightly and we feel we must arm ourselves with the proper knowledge of genetic testing before just diving in.<br />
<br />
Claiborne has been such a trooper throughout all of this and so has Hudson. He has rolled with the uncertainty well and is such a loving big brother. I could not ask for better children.<br />

Claiborne has had her g tube for a month as of 3/13! I love seeing her face without tape on it! She seems so much happier compared to before her surgery. Weight gain has been a little bit of a struggle but as of yesterday we seem to be on an upward swing back to where she was before surgery. She is on continuous feeds for 20 hours a day right now. The goal is to get back to eating 3/4 times a day and then overnight.<br />
<br />
Last week C had another swallow study done, she did better but still failed. We will keep feeding her small amounts by mouth to keep her skills up. She will also start PT next week in the hopes that we can get her start rolling over and pushing up from her tummy. Small steps in the right direction!<br />

This is an example of what is called a gravity feed, she was getting pedialyte and then very small amounts of formula 24 hours after surgery. We will move to these type of feeds during the day hopefully soon.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This week is Feeding Tube Awareness Week! Although we haven't been on this journey for long I felt compelled to share with y'all some common myths about feeding tubes.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Myth #1: Parents didn't try hard enough to make their child eat (I personally dislike this one!)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Fact: All parents try to feed their children, a feeding tube is usually the last resort. There are countless medical reasons a child cannot eat and those must be explored.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Myth #2: You must use formula to tube feed</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Fact: You can put milk, breastmilk, formula, or even pureed foods in the tube. Claiborne is mostly formula fed but does get 1 feeding of breastmilk per day (at least until it runs out)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Myth #3: The child's activities must be limited due to the tube.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Fact: Most tube kids can participate in any normal activities that other kids their age do. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We had to learn that our lives didn't have to stop just because Claiborne had a feeding tube, we can go out and do any activities we want to, we just have more stuff when we do. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Please take a moment this week and check out the Feeding Tube Awareness <a href="http://www.feedingtubeawareness.com/" target="_blank">website</a> and learn more about feeding tubes.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This website has been an amazing resource for Mack and I and our family! We have used it as tool to figure out what questions to ask and how to prepare for outings and surgery. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<br>
<br>
We are counting down the days until Claiborne's G Tube surgery on February 13th! Are we nervous, yes, but we are so ready for our princess to hopefully start feeling better and to get that awful tape off her face.<br>
<br>
Let me back up....after our last appointment with our GI he suggested we make an appointment with a pediatric surgeon to go over our g tube and nissen options. A GI doctor can perform the g tube surgery but since we were considering adding another procedure that is done by a surgeon he wanted us to talk to them first. So we made an appointment and really started to do our research on our options.<br>
<br>
Option 1: Only have the g tube placed<br>
Option 2: g tube placed and Nissen fundoplication<br>
<br>
What is a Nissen Fundoplication you ask, it is a procedure where the top part of the stomach is wrapped around the lower part of the esophagus so that when the stomach contracts the esophagus remains closed and doesn't allow acid to come out of the stomach, therefore reducing reflux and GERD.<br>
<br>
I met with the surgeon and set a date for surgery, we were still unsure about doing the Nissen because it does have complications, isn't reversible, and makes vomiting either impossible or painful from here on out.<br>
<br>
While Mack and were weighing our options C really had a rough week, she pulled her tube out 6 times in a week, was refluxing nonstop, and screaming throughout the night. We went to her ENT appointment and when they scoped her we could see just how much the acid is affecting her. That pretty much made our decision for us. So she will get the g tube and have the nissen performed at the same time, she will be in the hospital for 3-4 days post surgery. I cannot tell you how relieved I am that we might actually make our girl more comfortable. We have also moved back to her rock n play to sleep because we have discovered that when flat on her back she is aspirating her saliva (yes we have a wedge but she moves off of it during the night). This has seemed to help, not sure what we will do when she is too big for it.<br>
<br>
We've also been going to our weekly feeding clinic appointments which have gone so so. She is doing really well with her foods and not aspirating too badly. The bottle is a different story, we first tried using a level 1 nipple (with thickened formula) and she go drink for about 2 minutes before showing signs of aspiration. With the level 2 nipple she couldn't drink at all without aspirating, side-note, she was drinking her bottle with the same "noises" as when I had been feeding which is extremely scary after everything I know now!<br>
<br>
This last week she could no longer drink from the level 1 nipple and we moved to the ultra preemie nipple. Let me tell you, the poor thing sucked for a good 5 minutes and only was able to get about 2 grams out of the bottle! She still aspirated but mainly due to fatigue from having to work so hard to get the formula out. We will continue to work with her daily to keep up her oral skills, it is not about volume at this point so we do not care how much she eats or drinks.<br>
<br>
We had some good news today!!! Yay! I had really forgotten what good news felt like. When C was 1st in the hospital back in November she was diagnosed with hydronephrosis or reflux of the kidney, she had it in both kidneys. Today while not totally gone she has improved tenfold and we do not have to contemplate any other procedures at this point!!! Praise the Lord! They will keep watching her but gosh am I happy to cross one thing off of our "list" for the moment.<br>
<br>
3 months into Claiborne's journey and I am still in awe of how wonderfully she has coped with everything. Hudson has proven to be the most amazing big brother and is super protective of her. We are so grateful for all of the prayers, they are felt and are working!<br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqj5ItT1WoUAc6YnZpSCi8uVswnaniUzpUPIUjOXsrZE-Wyagas1cTL0NCCb8sGnWxEsigScGkDgBWuus-B6SEmXIrYJttINYpC7Q6YOwRR9e3au4BrLhdRxns8IfqJsqOb-mz9Fu92DAs/s640/blogger-image-2072161233.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqj5ItT1WoUAc6YnZpSCi8uVswnaniUzpUPIUjOXsrZE-Wyagas1cTL0NCCb8sGnWxEsigScGkDgBWuus-B6SEmXIrYJttINYpC7Q6YOwRR9e3au4BrLhdRxns8IfqJsqOb-mz9Fu92DAs/s640/blogger-image-2072161233.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAZOfAVGci4Y5zulW1Mfpr0-GEpVRsAfzh1L3Fji4W0nuNKqxl4JlrfF4xcpZwuhZOYysDo1n8vlAcmSxtRVacukBlLxwk4gX_kmFMHJYz8WkE8T7OQO-1WID7FR4WhKs-I4Mf1MBUGSiO/s640/blogger-image-317164578.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAZOfAVGci4Y5zulW1Mfpr0-GEpVRsAfzh1L3Fji4W0nuNKqxl4JlrfF4xcpZwuhZOYysDo1n8vlAcmSxtRVacukBlLxwk4gX_kmFMHJYz8WkE8T7OQO-1WID7FR4WhKs-I4Mf1MBUGSiO/s640/blogger-image-317164578.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDGT-TzUCR9HA7vsWLYXxGiMIR7eWeChIPqTTXuge9yjCm6F1iS2FSroyp4b1KdWEFkc_okkoUbQcxELMD1U6SCKURAjJ-T5qMNKascFVoVJ0bgnC0YUQR1T_e2cN7WK0jA3fOgvnN9wsv/s640/blogger-image-2026406164.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDGT-TzUCR9HA7vsWLYXxGiMIR7eWeChIPqTTXuge9yjCm6F1iS2FSroyp4b1KdWEFkc_okkoUbQcxELMD1U6SCKURAjJ-T5qMNKascFVoVJ0bgnC0YUQR1T_e2cN7WK0jA3fOgvnN9wsv/s640/blogger-image-2026406164.jpg"></a></div>Elizabethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03309518652584681592noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8970965838354679686.post-25384644054653078602014-12-03T08:00:00.000-06:002015-10-16T07:24:44.749-05:00Thanksgiving and Claiborne UpdateI thought I would pop in and give a little update on Claiborne and life in general. We last left off with C coming home from the hospital. We had an endoscopy and biopsy scheduled about a week after she came home. I was super nervous about my sweet girl having to go under anesthesia.<br />
<br />
The GI wanted to weigh her the day before the procedures to see if she was gaining weight. When she left the hospital she was 9lbs 15oz and at her next weigh in she was 10lbs 3oz which was not good enough. He decided that while she was already under he was going to place an NG feeding tube.<br />

She did well enough with her 1st overnight feeding that they let us go home after 1 night. Shortly after we got home the home health nurse came and brought our supplies and showed us how to work the pump. Claiborne is hooked up for 12 hours at night and gets 1 ounce per hour, she then eats 4xs during the day, around 4oz per feeding.<br />

...she yanked that sucker right out! NOT FUN!! Thank goodness we have an amazing home health nurse who came out after going on another emergency call and put it in for us.<br />
<br />
Claiborne has been such a trooper during all of this. We went back to the DR today and she was up to 11lbs 1oz which I think is great but the DR still see her as sluggish. They really wanted to see her make a big jump. We met with the dietitian and she wants to up her feedings over night. They also want her to see a food therapist as well as OT & PT.<br />

Throughout everything this guy has been AMAZING! He is the best big brother in the whole world. When his classmates asked why sister had a tube in her nose he surprised me and told them matter of factually that she couldn't eat like us and the tube helped to give her food. Such a simple wise answer for my 5 year old.<br />

We went down to Isle of Palms for Thanksgiving with my family. I am so glad that we decided to go, it was just what we needed. Mack hooked the pump up to C's car seat and hung the bag from the clothes hook.<br />

Mack snapped this at lunch and when I looked at it I realized I hadn't put on any make-up that day. I read recently that Carrie Underwood never has a make-up free day....that's great for her but I'd like to see her after sleepless nights and a baby with GERD. I have more make-up free days than make-up days and right now I don't really care. So maybe one day I can strive to have zero make-up free days but for now if you see me out and I don't have make-up on don't think I'm not trying, its just the last thing on my mind these days.<br />

Well just when we thought we had turned the corner in Claiborne's weight gaining issues we got sucker punched!<br />
<br />
Let's recap shall we....C had dropped to the 3rd percentile at her 3 month checkup so we started supplementing after every feeding and even added a feeding back in during the day. They wanted her to gain 5 ounces in 4 days, she ended up gaining 7 which was awesome! She was up to 9.8 pounds and we would go back in 3 weeks to see how everything was going.<br />
<br />
Last Wednesday I snapped the below picture during the day, C wasn't keeping anything down and couldn't even nap because of it.<br />

Thank goodness our pediatricians' office is open until 7:30 so I could take her in once Mack got home. They weighed her and she was up to 10 pounds 5 ounces ( yay baby C ) but no fever so they didn't think it was a virus. They told me to give her pedialyte for her bedtime bottle.<br />
<br />

Poor girl couldn't even keep the pedialyte down so we called the doctor back and they told us to head to the hospital. We are lucky that we live close to a hospital that has a pediatric ER, we didn't have to wait at all. They started an IV, drew blood, and then took her for an x-ray. The x-ray showed a lot of air in her colon, that coupled with her not being able to keep anything down bought us am admittance to the peds floor.<br />

We finally got up to a room around 3:30am so there was very little sleep for C and myself. She also was now not allowed to eat, which if you have ever been told not to feed your hungry sleep deprived child you know how brutal this is. All we could give her was a soothie dipped in sugar water.<br />
<br />
The worst was when I would have to pump and set her in the crib. She would just scream until I finished and could hold her again.<br />

She had an ultrasound the next day which was clear for what they were looking for but they inadvertently found that here kidneys are backing up urine every time she goes to the bathroom. This condition is called hydronephrosis and they do not think it is at all related to why she couldn't eat.<br />

Friday they brought in a swing for C to see if she would try and sleep a little since she was literally getting about 3 hours of sleep at night and 20 minute naps through out the day. They were even giving her tylenol at night to try and get her to relax.<br />

Friday morning she had an upper GI, which is where you drink barium and then they look at her with the x-ray machine...it is pretty cool. What is not cool....seeing your child literally taped down and screaming because she's starving. When they gave her the 2 ounce bottle of barium she downed it in about 5 seconds, the techs were shocked.<br />

The Upper GI showed that she has severe reflux :( That night we started trying to ease her back into eating by giving her an ounce of pedialyte every 2 hours or so. Poor girl was so angry when she would finish.<br />

She was even happier Saturday morning when they said she didn't have to have a barium enema! They had been able to see what they needed to on an x-ray the night before.<br />

We took a long nap on Saturday while waiting to be discharged. I practically ran out the doors when they said I could go get the car. I did get concerned though b/c in the time I went to move my car poor girl threw up all over herself. I was so scared they weren't going to let me take her home...<br />

We went to our regular pediatrician Monday and Claiborne had lost 10% of her body weight since Thursday :( She is still not eating as much per feeding as she was but we are slowly working her up. She still throws up after some of her feedings and we head to the pediatric GI doctor tomorrow to come up with a plan of action. The pediatric urologist will be next week.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The most frustrating part of all of this is the fact that there isn't a "quick" fix, this is going to be an ongoing issue that we are going to have to manage as we go. I hate seeing my sweet baby girl uncomfortable and in pain and know that there is little to nothing I can do to help her other than holding her upright after she eats, having her sleep at an incline, and giving her her medicine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

Thanks for all of the prayers, we have felt them!</div>

I was all prepared to do C's 3 month update...a week late I might add, but after getting back from our lactation appointment I am feeling very defeated.<br />

<br />
This petite little thing isn't gaining weight like she should. In the 3 weeks since she was weighed last she has only gained 3 ounces. That puts her down into the 3rd percentile and almost at the "failure to thrive" mark.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
So after hearing that she is doing 5 feedings a day and sleeping through the night, we've been told to add in another feeding while also supplementing after each time she nurses.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

For me this feels like a step backwards...we were doing this when she was 1st born and I thought we were done. She also told me to go back to pumping after at least 2 feedings per day.<br />

I know I might sound like I am whining and complaining and maybe I am, but I feel like I have a right to whine. Breastfeeding has been important to me this time around since Hudson never latched, this time C has been bf'ing the whole time. I by no means am going to throw in the towel but I can't lie and say that this weight setback doesn't put a damper on my bf'ing journey.<br />

<br />
So after hearing how we need to change her schedule and up her feedings I got even more defeated because I am leaving tomorrow for Nashville. I'll only be gone for 32 hours but it feels like a lifetime to me. I know Mack will be able to feed her when she needs to eat, that is not in question. I just hate not being the one to feed her, I enjoy our nursing sessions.<br />

They wanted us to come back on Saturday for a weight check but I won't be back in time, so we will go back in Monday. She needs to have gained 3 ounces, if she doesn't they will start exploring why she is not eating enough. So please send us some good vibes if you have a chance.<br />

Claiborne,<br />
<br />
You are sleeping through the night from 8:30PM to 7:00AM which makes your daddy very very happy. You love to smile and coo at mommy and daddy after you eat. Big brother Hudson just loves you to pieces. You still hate your car seat and spit up several times while in it. We've been going on some long walks in the nice weather! You love to play on your playmat but hate tummy time (mommy did ask today about the fact that you aren't holding your head up...surprise surprise she said you are not strong enough to hold your head up yet). From 5:30pm to 8:00pm you just scream, bath time does not help ;) We love you so much and I still am amazed at how you fit into our family so!<br />

Friday marked 8 weeks, and I am still in disbelief that A. Claiborne is 8 weeks old B. that we don't live in Tennessee anymore and C. that Hudson is in Kindergarten! So much has happened in these 8 weeks that I am surprised we are all still standing!<br />
<br />
Our 2 month well check isn't until next week so I will update that later, last month she weighed in at 7lbs 13oz and is in the 5th percentile for weight, 20 1/4 inches long which is 10th percentile, and has a big ol noggin in the 75th percentile.<br />

You love to let everyone know you are around with your grunts and cries. Your big brother Hudson adores you and gives you kisses all the time, he has tried to pick you up several times but mommy thankfully has stopped him :)<br />

You have good and bad nights but have been eating at 9:30pm and then not again until 3:30 or 4:30. Your acid reflux is for the birds and makes you feel so bad, we have started giving you 1 bottle of sensitive formula at the bedtime feeding and has seemed to help with your gas and fussiness.<br />

When you do sleep at night it is in your rock-n-play which has been a game changer! Naps are held in your pack-n-play where you like to sleep on your tummy....don't worry mommy checks on you often :) We are hoping to get your crib set up again soon...<br />

You are starting to stay awake longer during the day and really like your playmat and walks outside. We've taken you to the river 3 times and although you don't seem to like the change from your own space you do like being on the water and all the fresh air.</div>

We are still so glad you are here and although frustrating when you are up for hours at night, I cannot imagine our family without you!</div>

We are moving back home to Richmond...this Thursday...as in 3 days from now! Mack has accepted what amounts to his dream job with another car company and while the decision to move was the hardest one we've had to make, it is the right move.<br>
<br>
Murfreesboro has become our home and it holds our heart. The people we have met and the church community that wrapped their arms around us are going to be hard to leave and hard to replicate in a "new" city.<br>
<br>
Going home will be nice, we haven't lived in Richmond in 8 years, having free babysitters is also going to be something we take full advantage of :)<br>
<br>
Moving with a 3 week old is not my idea of fun and my wonderful father is flying here to drive myself, the kids, the dogs, and the boat back to VA....he is a saint! The drive would normally take us about 10 hours but I anticipate a much longer drive due to having to stop every 3 hours to feed Claiborne.<br>
<br>
So while the big day draws closer I continue to be in a state of denial on top of lack of sleep! Once we are settled I will update with how everything went, but for now please send me some good vibes to make it through these next few days.<br>

<br />
2 weeks ago at 32 weeks I started having what I thought were minor contractions around 6pm, I had downloaded a contraction timing app and after about an hour of contractions I started timing them. By around 9:30 they were 2 minutes apart and becoming more and more painful, I knew I needed to go to the hospital.<br />
<br />
I drove myself to the hospital so that Mack didn't have to wake Hudson in case this was a huge false alarm. I just kept thinking as soon as I get there they'll stop and the nurses will think I am crazy. The nice thing was that they took me right up to labor and delivery and I didn't have to wait at all. At this point I was still thinking I would be going home in 2 hours...then the nurse checked me and low and behold I was 2cm dilated and 40% effaced! Contractions were now about 1 minute apart!<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
I was immediately started on magnesium to stop my progress and then I got a big ol shot of steroids to help speed up Claiborne's development in case they ended up having to deliver her. I didn't get much sleep that night as the contractions were still coming and there was no getting comfortable at that point.<br />
<br />
The verdict was that I was going to have a nice weekend stay at the hospital hooked up to the magnesium and fluids...fun times. They even had the NICU doctor come up and talk to me because if I delivered this early we would definitely be getting a stay in the NICU for several weeks.<br />
<br />
The boys came to see me and brought me flowers! Hudson was so sweet and just wanted to sit next to me the whole time.<br />

I ended being able to leave Saturday night which was a welcome relief but I am on bed rest for the foreseeable future in order to keep little miss where she is. Thank goodness I can work from home or else I would be going completely insane! </div>

<br></div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
1. Since I had Hudson at 36 weeks my doctor put me on a new (read expensive) shot that I get 1x a week to help keep Claiborne in my tummy! I have been getting the shot since 16 weeks and will stop around 34 weeks. My boss has been really amazing with me having to leave or come in late every week which is great.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
2. I didn't work while I was pregnant with Hudson. This time around I work in a building that takes me over half a mile to walk to and from the lunch room...fun. So while I do get in some walking everyday, walking in dress shoes leads to swollen feet, which only happened to me once while pregnant with Hudson. I also am way more stressed out and have to remind myself to keep calm!</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
3. I have a 5 year old! A 50 pound 5 year old who still wants me to carry him... We are working on H's independence in certain areas so that hopefully he can help me out and be a little more self sufficient once his sister gets here.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
4. Morning sickness is not just a 1st trimester thing. I was never sick with Hudson. This time even before I officially knew I was pregnant I was so nauseous! There were 2 days where I couldn't even get out of bed I felt so bad, on top of that I was car sick every time I got in the car. It was miserable! I kept waiting for the relief that everyone told me was coming and while I have felt much better I still have some lingering morning sickness about once or twice a week.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
5. Claiborne is a mover and a shaker. Hudson never moved! With Hudson I would have to go to the Dr's a few times to check on him b/c he just never moved! Claiborne moves all the time...I love it! </div>
