New Stuff


So after my last post we went to the doctor and found out that Vivian had only gained 2 ounces in 10 days. What! We thought she was doing so well, she was finally having wet and poopy diapers. How discouraging. He decided to run some more blood tests as well as give her an I.V. to help with dehydration. I felt like the worst mom ever! It's hard enough watching your little baby getting needles poked in her, but I just felt like it was my fault, like I wasn't feeding her or something. I sure have been trying. So we are having to supliment her with bottles, and unfortunatley with all the craziness going on my milk supply is starting to wain. Oh the joys. Hopefully she will have gained some more weight this week. I also wanted to post a few more cute pictures of my yahoo's.



Not quite sure what is going on here.:) She loves to make this funny face when she says "cheese".

I think you are being too hard on your self. I remember with Annadele she lost 1 lb after a month. She survived me starving her for a whole month. Do not feel bad. I know easier said than done. It is hard not to worry about our little ones. Especially when they can not speak for them selves. It will all work out in the end. Just do your best and trust the Lord will help you.

Ohhh what cute pictures! It is NOT your fault she's gaining slow! There is NOTHING wrong with supplementing. I actually like it. It gives dad and the kids an opportunity to feed the baby too. Also it's a lot easier when your out in public.
