Zoie Renee





She is home! When she was taken to the nursery they noticed that she was grunting and retracting so they wanted to put her on oxygen to help her breathe. They put her on a cpap machine which didn't work so they took an xray to check her lungs which turned out were good. They decided she probably had an infection they put her on antibiotics and moved her to the NICU. The doctor wanted to do at least 7 days antibiotics but wanted to make sure that nothing grew on the blood culture when they got the results there was a growth which they thought was lysteria which is a dangerous and rare bacteria. They ran another test and found out it wasnt lysteria so she was set to do just 7 days. She had a pic line put in so they wouldn't have to poke her so many times. Her first pic line fell out so they did another one. Its quite a process I am so grateful for modern medicine! She got out of the hospital on Tuesday July 6th! It was a hard week going back and forth thank goodness for family that is willing to help! We love having her home and Kiegen just loves to hold her and look at her its really sweet!
