Those were the doctor's words to me at 7am, after another sleepless night.
Treyson is showing SOME improvement, but he's not whole yet.
His oxygen levels are still a little low - esp. when he's sleeping and he still need some suctioning. We could go home tonight, we could go home tomorrow. Only time will tell............AHHHHH!
Venting time. I have never been so exhausted in my life. EVER. sometimes the nurses have to tell me things a few times because I'm so delirious. I about collapsed last night and called Trevor at 4am in a panic. I couldn't even find the 2 on the phone to speed dial. I sat there for 5 minutes looking for it.
My mom asked me what I wanted if I could have anything right now. Obviously, for TRey to be better, but my request is one of pure selfishness. I want to spend one day with TRevor and Trey shopping, eating out and then get my hair done. I just want to have FUN and not feel worried/burdened/sick/stressed. Part of me feels like I haven't even been able to ENJOY Treyson like I expected because we went from hospital to house arrest to sickness to hospital again. This little man is def. giving me a crash course in parenting.
However, he is the awesomest little booger I've ever met. He just needs to start breathing normal AND eating more. Poor kid's lost some weight which we worked so hard to put on his rear.
(If only his mother was following suit.)
Oh, and please pray the cows don't get out again. I can't do another day without Trevor. :)
Appreciate all your kind words and support. It's truly gotten me through this.

I'm proud of you. And FYI, smart one, the number two looks like this: "2" ;-)
Hi Andrea,
I came across your blog and I am crying while reading it at work. I hope you and your family make a fast recovery. I haven't talked to you in forever, but I'm praying for you and your darling boy. He is lucky to have a mom like you.

Just wanted you to know that you have been in our thoughts and prayers. It sucks having a little one so sick! We will continue to pray for you and your sweet family!
Andrea, I'm so sorry for you and little Trey. I haven't blogged for a while... RSV... stinks. Make sure you talk to his doctor about Synagis. It is the RSV vaccine... he may need it next year, or even sooner.... It's expensive, but worth it. I know you feel overwhelmed, but you are there with him, being his mom...so, you are doing great.
Remind me never to complain about being tired again. Oh man, if I lived closer I would come to the hospital and take shifts. I'm so sorry. So glad to hear he is improving a little bit. When you guys get home someone needs to come over and stay with you for a few days so you can just sleeeeep and sleep some more. Pump some bottles and then crash.
P.S. Your mom rocks
I hope all is well ... A sick baby is pretty much the worst thing in the world! (at least for his mother) Good luck and hope things get better soon! try and catch some sleep :)
