Chloe's Hospital Stay: Day 4

My munchkin is still at the hospital, and I'm at work yet again. 

I don't even really have any updates. They took her IV off yesterday morning. She took her 'just in case' oxygen off last night for her bath and kept it off. They ended up having to put it back on later the same night. 

She was cranky when I got there last night, but after her bath, she perked up and acted happy and silly for awhile. I loved it. I had to leave to get boyfriend at work (I'm using his car so Mom has mine in case Chloe gets discharged) and she was asleep when I got back. 

This morning she was really cranky when I got there again. She's starting to sound more sad. Her cries aren't the same anymore. Her coughs are more frequent and sick sounding. If you asked me personally, it doesn't sound like she's getting better, but what do I know? 

The nurse came to take her blood right before I left. They cut her fingers and squeeze the blood into a tube. It's long, and painful and torture for Chloe. I didn't want to be the one to hold her while they did it, but Mom had left the room for a few minutes. 

Luckily she came back just in time, so I gave Chloe to her and left. If I had to listen to her cry while they took the blood one more time, I was going to lose it. 

I'm still pretty sad over it. 

This morning my 16 month old cried in my arms saying 'no no no' over and over again, knowing they were going to hurt her. It kills me. 

Here are a few pictures from last night and this morning: 

Hospital bath time

Finally, a silly face. It's been too long. 

She loved watching videos of my nephew on Mom's iPad

Gorgeous, silly girl

Picking at breakfast this morning. She didn't eat much of it.

God, I wish there were something I could do to get that baby girl better! I feel sad knowing you guys are going through this. At least she's got a great mama and grandma and family to be there and support and love her. And once she's out she will forget all about this ordeal. Plus, she's still the cutest, prettiest sick person I've ever seen!

OMG, Nessa I am so sorry, poor Chloe! She's about the same age as Ivory so that terrifies me. It sounds actually a lot like what I am going through as I have been sick too (and coughing so hard I puke).

I can't imagine Chloe is having much fun in the hospital. Does she have stuffies or toys or anything there? I know Ivory would be going bananas and screaming her head off the whole time. Either that or she'd have the run of the place making all the nurses say hi to her and getting loads of attention.

I hope she feels better and you too because I know that can't be easy!

Poor baby girl!! Sorry you're all going through this, there is nothing worse than when little one's are ill. I love her little smiley face despite being unwell. What a pretty little girl you have.

I hope she gets better very very soon xx Thank You for coming by my blog!
