Emma has a staph infection again but a different kind then before. How she can have ANOTHER, DIFFERENT staph infection seems to beat the odds. I am still sick, on antibiotics and desperate to be able to go there. Lucian had a terrible desat yesterday and had to be bagged, reviving him. He's on cannula again, 25 percent, 2 liters. Emma is now being given neocate, a formula that is so broken down the gut should simply absorb it. She keeps having residuals of a coffee brown color, indicating clotted blood. If she doesn't tolerate this simple substance they will FINALLY do a contrast study. The attending mentioned the chance of a protein allergy. We were hoping Lucian's homecoming would be this coming week but with this latest setback and the need for his hernia surgery still in the works that seems unrealistic. We've got the paint for the nursery, just need the energy and time to empty the room and actually paint it. I'm so nautious today I don't know what to do with myself.

Aunt Fran sent diapers! Yay! And two adorable sets of onesies. I want my babies home.
