Lincoln Update
Last night Lincoln was very lethargic, refusing to eat, whimpering,
and had a fever so we took him to the ER. Because of the fever, he was
admitted to the NICU at St. Joe's (standard procedure with babies under 2
months old). They have run lots of tests, but nothing of major concern
has showed up. They will repeat the labs
this afternoon. We are also waiting on some cultures to grow to
determine whether he has an infection, so we will definitely be here
until Saturday. If there is an infection, we will stay for a total of 10
days.
Lincoln is looking much, much better. He was put on
IV fluids and a couple of antibiotics late last night. He has nursed
three times this morning and is now off the fluids. He's moving around,
not whimpering anymore, basically acting more like his normal self - at
least as normal as he can be hooked up to all the machines. We are feeling much better now that he is starting to act like Lincoln again. I will update again soon-ish. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.
