Ciara is doing well weighing in at an amazing 8lb 14oz!!!! She went to the pediatrician today and got her four month shots. She is very gassy and sleeping a lot. Typical post shot symptoms. She has been vomitting after her meals so the doctor changed her formula today. Hopefully it will help her. She gets really fussy after her meals and as soon as she spits up she is fine. They put her on Alimentum and it is so expensive!! Thank GOD for WIC!!! I went and got 13 containers of it and it was 113.00! I'm glad I don't have to come up with the money for it.
She and Aaliyah have been doing very well. We usually spend most of our days outside so Aaliyah can play with the neighbor kids. Unless it is really windy. Ciara gets colic from the smallest wind. Ciara is still wearing newborn clothes and diapers but I only think she has about a week left in them. They are getting small!! How wonderful.
Ciara has been doing really well with her apnea monitor. She is going on Monday the 20th to have a 12 hour pneumogram sleep study done to determine if she still needs to have it with her at all times. It may be possible that she could be decreased to only having it at bedtime. I am excited to go because I haven't seen the NICU girls since Ciara got discharged. They became like family to me and I find myself missing them.
I apologize for not including any pictures. My computer got a bunch of viruses and it crashed. My brother is currently working on it so I am updating from my mom's computer. Hopefully the next post will be at home and I can include some recent pictures.
I want to thank you for all of your prayers and support. There is no way we could have gotten where we are today without our friends and family. Please continue to pray for her growth.
