Dropping in from March15. Hoping surgery went well. My cousin was born without a rectum or anus and he is now a happy healthy 3 year old. Will be thinking of you and baby.

Sorry for the lack of updates. Not much "free" time and spotty internet. So surgery was Saturday late morning. She is recovering in the nicu. We know the s place well as Willa did a two week stay. The repair was simple as Addie didn' t need a colostomy bag. I think I put her to breast that night but my memory might be flawed.
Sunday was hit or miss for feeds. She had numerous tests done to rule out associated abnormalities. Those results are still coming back. The nurses put in a cathrtor because she hadn't peed. They took out 40 cc's urine. That function has returned.
Only a smear of poop but she is passing gas so her bowels are awake.
I've been breastfeeding and pumping every 3ish hours and I don't think I will be able to keep up with her appetite.
My release is today and she could be released by tomorrow. NC is supposed to get snow this afternoon. Could be interesting travel.

Gotta run. 6am care time!!

We are home and life is busy. I got a smartphone yesterday and will try to get back to upping my post count.

Addie is thriving and eats 10x better than her big sister ever did.
