Today's update had so much potential:


Well, we went in for our weight check today and Megan is back down to 12 pounds 12 ounces. I really have no idea what to say. Do you think that we are a bit frustrated, yep, you bet. Almost to the point that it makes you want to go crazy. We rack our brains about what is causing the up and down and the fact that we can’t seem to get her over 13 pounds and we can’t seem to come up with an answer and neither can anyone else. It is very frustrating. This little girl who, sits here day in and day out and only gets a break every once in a while to crawl around just to keep her muscles moving and stimulated can’t keep the weight on unless she is totally confined to a hospital bed and pretty much sleeping all the time. I just don’t understand. Please don’t get me wrong, we are so thankful that Megan looks so good but after this you tend to get a little down and upset. Especially when you are doing everything you possible can and you just seem to be failing. I don’t know what else to say. I know people have said that we are allowed to have bad days, well, this is one of them. I have no problem admitting that because we are by far not perfect. Thankfully we can lean on God to get us through this.  We are waiting for Dr. Blumenthal to call back and let us know if he doesn’t want her to do anything at all (he said he might have to cut back her few times off a day if she didn’t gain weight) or if he will do something to her formula or put that new button in her that bypasses her stomach. Please pray for weight and as much as I don’t like to include ourselves, please pray for Jim and I. This is really just taking a beating on us and making us terribly upset and frustrated. We love you all and God Bless.


 

If you want to be a little more cheery, look at my previous post today. This just sucks, as does the weather. Coincidence?
