Doing Well




Emma has been home again for about 2 weeks now. She turns one on the 16th. Since returning home from the hospital, Emma has been doing fairly well. When they sent her home she was still throwing up a little bit. As a result, we decided to switch to straight breast milk instead of fortifying the milk. Since then, Emma has not been throwing up. We want her to get the extra calories that the formula gives, but if she can't keep it down it is not doing any good. Emma has learned to roll from her back to her stomach, but cannot get back over. She is finding her voice a little bit as well. You can hear her squeak a little bit more often. A few of her teeth are getting close to breaking through. On June 22, Emma got to meet some of her relatives that she had never met at her Auntie Karen's wedding rehearsal. We were supposed to go to Dee's house today for the 4th of July, but I have been sick for the past few days. I had a 103 fever on Sunday and had to stay away from Emma and Alissa for 2 days. It was a bummer to have time off and not get to spend it with them. I will have another update in a week or so unless something major comes up beforehand.
