Above is my Real Life picture of the week. Camden has been a handful! I think he is very very excited Nanna and Logan will be here in days!!
Ailyn has had a history of high blood pressure. Each time they take it it's very high. Today the reading was 130/71 and later was 114/71. The plan was to check it in 2 weeks and then decide on if medication is needed. But, since it was so high today, the doctor (Renal) thought it would be best to start right away. I agree! This has had us worried for months now. So she had her first dose of Lisinopril tonight. In another few days she will have blood work and another BP check.Once Ailyn's blood pressure is under control we will be doing the feeding tube. She is falling behind in her adjusted age milestones and her weight gain isn't enough. She is gaining but it's not enough. The feeding tube will take a TON of pressure off us as far as feedings go. We always stress if she is getting enough ounces in a day. She is so active, so she is burning too many calories moving around. I am trying not to have so much anxiety over it and telling myself we did our best to try to avoid the tube.
In GREAT news! Ailyn can now do "SO BIG". I had her in a cart in Target and a lady came up to us and said "OMG, she is SO tiny sitting up like that, how old is she??" When I told her she was one, Ailyn threw her arms up "SOOO BIG" You tell her baby girl!!!!
