We are home!
Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. I am sorry I didn't update the board or text anyone. It was a crazy few days and really didn't think about it to be honest with everything going on until my friend texted me yesterday..
We were finally released at lunch time. She had one little episode yesterday evening but not too bad. So far she has kept everything down and doesn't seem to be in pain like she has been. I know that it is suppose to take up to 5 days to kick in (they still have her on her zantac till sunday also) but maybe it is kicking in. They said she may still spit up some but when she does it won't be as acidic as it was and therefore should not be in pain.
The thing now that we have to keep an eye out on is her weight. She lost 5 ozs in 2 1/2 days and one of the pedis that is in the practice she goes to was a little concerned that she is not too much over her birth weight and she is already a month old. Yesterday she was back up to her weight on Friday. We have an appointment on Monday and may have to go back once a week for a while to make sure that she is gaining weight. Hopefully if she doesn't spit up like she has been then she will be fine.
It broke my heart seeing her like that as her veins are tiny and so it took forever and several nurses to get a vein to draw blood and then they had to put an iv in her head because that was the only place they could really get an iv to give fluids because she was dehydrated. I don't think I have cried as much as I have these past 3 days. I know she can't remember it but it killed me.
The good thing is that everything inside her looks great and we are only dealing with reflux and I can handle that. I don't want to see her in pain but at least I know that we have stuff to help her and hopefully she will grow out of it.
Hopefully this time next week we will see a big improvement.

I am so glad you are finally home. I know you have been stressed to the max the past couple of days. Hopefully you both were able to get some rest last night and things are improving today. Still thinking and praying for you.
