Made it through the morning. I've decided I need to just distract myself with food and TCF until this presentation, otherwise I'm going to make myself crazy. One can only prepare so much...
Hi ladies! Checking in with an update. We were able to bring Evie home yesterday. She came home at 4lb 6oz. She's doing pretty well. Harper is still at the hospital. She is down to 4lb 8oz and is still spitting up almost all of what she eats. They are running abdominal X-rays on her today to see if something is going on. The feeding schedule is killing us. We are breastfeeding Evie as well as supplementing with formula in a cup. She is hard to keep awake for a feeding so just one session takes about an hour and a half. I am also pumping breastmilk to take to Harper. So I feel like all I do is feed and my boobs HURT. We are adjusting to life with one preemie baby but my heart is broken that it looks like Harper won't be coming home anytime soon. I'm guessing they'll put a feeding tube in at some point today because of the spit up.

You ladies write so much, so early! I'd feel bad for us sad West Coast people, but we also aren't having a horrid snowstorm, so...
mustloveerica, I'm praying that Harper will be home with everyone soon! nic1231, great news about them both being home and gaining weight! hpnegirl, I'd take your MIL being abducted by aliens. Sounds good to me! akraus2015, good luck with your presentation. You can do it!
I hope all you ladies in the way of the snow stay safe and sound!
I took Benadryl last night and woke up with a chip on my shoulder. Does that happen to anyone else? It like makes me angry if I don't sleep a full eight hours. We just had a fire drill and it was super hot. It's like 80 something degrees. Booooo.
I think I'm going to get a burrito for lunch to make myself feel better.

setsuna17, my allergies have been terrible so I've taken Benadryl the last 2 nights. I also have been an enormous jerk. So now I'm thinking these things are related. I've been drowsy all day, too. But it's worth it to get some sleep through all this congestion.

I've never had that reaction from Benadryl. I have to remember to fill up my bottle upstairs, I only had one to take last night.
mustloveerica - So awesome E is home with you! I hope H gets the eating figured out quickly and also comes home soon. I'm sure your boobs are going crazy, but you're doing an amazing job!

I knew there was a correlation! Yeah, I need sleep so bad too, that Benadryl and unisom have been my friend.
