So as we've always known... this is Rylynn's world and we're all just living in it. :)
Last night Ry did not sleep again. Every 15-30 minutes she's up asking for me to "scooch" her, get a drink of water, change her diaper, hold her hand, rub her owie, etc. We are trying to narrow down what could be bothering her. Could it be her new night-time feeds? Pain? New appetite stimulater? ICU craziness? Unfortunately, she also woke up with a fever. It spiked around 6:00 am. This set off the process of culturing her for many different things from infection to a virus. Cultures take 48 hours to come back, but so far nothing has grown. She also has some real skin irritation at her right canula sight which her body could be reacting to. Until cultures come back, every person who enters her room has to wear a gown and mask. This sooo annoying, but understandable.
So as you can guess this means we won't be moving up to the 8th floor till next week. So we'll sit tight and pray that the fever does not return (hasn't since about 10:00 am). We're also hoping for improved canula sites tomorrow.
Hopefully it will be a nice quiet, eneventful evening. (Except for the thrill of watching Chlidren's MED tonight!!)
