Update
We have not yet received any results from Mason's line culture. They are treating him with general antibiotics until we hear from the lab. Luckily, they have not stopped his feeds this time; that usually makes for a very unhappy baby! Mason only had one nap yesterday, and had been up since 1:00 in the afternoon. Once again, Mason missed home and his own bed lastnight. That seems to be an issue any time he is hospitalized. The doctor had to give him Benadryl at 2 a.m because he just wouldn't sleep. I did take him out into the hallway to walk around for a bit where he seemed much happier. Unfortunately the battery on his I.V. pump was almost dead and needed to be plugged in, so again we were confined to our room. Mason finally fell asleep around 3 a.m. but the medical team usually comes in early to get started on their treatment plan for him so we are all sleep deprived. I must say, for not getting a lot of sleep, Mason has been quite the happy baby this morning. We brought down the portable swing that one of his NICU nurses gave him, and Mason is now swinging watching cartoons. I am hoping he will take a nap so that mom can get a shower and maybe take a little cat nap myself. I will keep everyone posted as we hear news!
