Echo tomorrow

Tomorrow is Libbi's echo, it was scheduled for December but she was sick so we rescheduled. We go in at 830, they'll sedate her and it'll probably take about an hour. Then we just wait for her to wake up and head home. Dr. Menon didn't feel it necessary to meet with him after, he will just review it and call me. Honestly the worst part of these is not letting her eat or drink before. She can have normal diet until 3am then just water or juice from 3-7am then nothing after 7am. Should be interesting since she still wakes up for a bottle. I'm hoping for some good luck and little help that she will sleep until 8 when we need to leave! Then she'll only scream for the ride down and not all night long... i think i can handle that. Maybe :)

Should be nothing to worry about, i'm hoping and thinking it'll be a good review and we can hold off on anything for a while.

Stay tuned..

Thinking of you guys right now! I know Ellie has had a harder time with anesthesia, but she hasn't had a sedated echo since we were in patient. It works perfectly to have a bottle during her echo. I will keep her in my prayers that her results will be good.

Hope things are going okay!!

This is Paul Cardell's CHD video. (I put it at the bottom of the blog, it fits best there..) It is shocking how many people, young and old are dealing with the same type of things we are. Take 9 minutes and watch, these are some of the cutest babies i've seen!! Libbi is about 6 and a half minutes into the video. (make sure you scroll down and pause my music playlist so you can hear his music, he is a pianist, it is very pretty!)
