Update to surgery


I just want to thank everyone for the prayers and words of encouragment. They really helped me stay calm so I could be strong for Paige. She did great and they discharged us yesterday at 4PM. She had some narcotics for pain so they had to watch her for 4 hours after the surgery. They could not send her home with any narcotics because 2 month olds are required to be monitored in a hospital so they had us give her tylenol every 4 hours and told us to bring her back to be admitted if it did not control the pain enough. A couple of times last night I thought about bringing her back because she would start to cry and I could tell she was in pain but we just comforted her until she able to have her next tylenol dose and then she would do much better. Today she is 100% back to my happy little baby. She's been smiling and cooing all morning and I can tell she is no longer in any pain. I am so relieved it is over and that everything went well.
