Hi all.
After my last post we had quite a bit of Pigbear drama. As Sarah was recovering from her stomach bug she decided not to take any food or fluid. After trying to hydrate her with an eyedropper (trust me, NOT fun), we had to take her to the ER where they admitted her for dehydration. We spent Wednesday night in the hospital which was one of the most tramautic experiences of my life – especially after she pulled out her first IV and had to get stuck again, and again, and again. The catheter wasn’t any fun either.
At any rate, we’re home. We have a healthy Pigbear who is eating and drinking like the little piglet that she typically is. We are more thankful for her than we ever have been, and we have a new perspective on what it means to have a healthy baby (99.9% of the time). Spending one night in the hospital was enough for me…I just can’t wrap my mind around how it is for those who have really ill babies. My heart aches for them.
So, there it is. Thanks for your happy thoughts. Hopefully I’ll be posting pictures of our happy, squealy little Pi’bears real soon!!
