Another Update!

Well I hoped that after everything weve been thru with Curtis III that this time around it would be as smooth as it possibly could go....but it hasnt worked out that way. From day one Anisah was a noisy breather but they chalked it up to all the excess amniotic fluid she had. But over the last month it has progressively gotten worse. So we were immediately sent to the ENT Dr. He used a scope to look through her passage way through the larynx and trachea....and she has been diagnosed as having laryngomalacia. Her cartilage collapses inward which causes blockage in her airway. Shes working extremely hard to breathe and therefore burning off all the calories that are being fed to her. Her weight gain was at the bottom of the curve because of this. The Dr ordered that Anisah be admitted to hospital for observations. As of right now there is no word on when we will be leaving. Due to her weight gain they are saying that we may have to supplement for a while. They are telling me that most of the time this problem is corrected by growth in the infant but sometimes it requires surgery. So Im hoping that she will grow out of it and not have to have the surgery.    Right now I am holding up to the best of my ability which isnt all that great. I am  extremely emotional and wear my feelings on my sleeve so I have cried alot.  ITs just hard to see her hooked up and to see all the wires everywhere. We are in the same hospital where they brought Curtis after he passed. Seeing her in the bed just brought back so many unwanted memories. I havent really slept because I am so worried and not to mention that I was told not to feed her after 3 am this morning....needless to say that chocolate mama is not feeling that too much! But they need her stomach to be empty for some of the test they are performing. Just keep us in your prayers please! I love you guys! Chubbycub- I know that you and all of your angel buddies are watching over your little sis. Send some strength to mommy and to daddy. Hes saying that hes ok but we both know better.
