Hi Everyone,
This morning Josiah's paediatrician noticed that his heartbeat was still quite high (as it was on Monday morning). We let SickKids know and they arranged for us to go to McMaster Hospital today. The nurse practitioner there thought Josiah was breathing faster and working harder at breathing. She also thought Josiah was retaining some fluid so he has been put on a low dose of medicine to help with the fluid issue which should also decrease his heart rate and breathing rate.
Josiah was planning to meet his family doctor this afternoon so that appointment has been rescheduled for next week (we currently have 4 appointments next week but three of them are local). On Monday he will have a VCUG at SickKids to check that his kidneys and bladder are working as they should. We were told that having a catheter may be uncomfortable for Josiah so we're praying it all goes well.
Josiah did not want to go in his bassinet last night (we're not supposed to let him cry very much) so it made for a long night. We're hoping for more sleep tonight! Our $7 purchase of a bouncy/vibrating chair off Kijiji has proved to be a good investment.
We are doing well. Graham worked three days last week and is back full time this week. Josiah rarely fights when starting to nurse so that is a very positive change (especially because he seems to nurse all the time). He has now nursed in several waiting rooms so he's made a lot of progress. Isaac is wonderful and makes us laugh all the time.
Blessings,
Graham and Elizabeth;
Continuing to pray, Graham and Elizabeth, as you keep all those appointments this week. May you have much grace and favour, and praying rest for you, too.
