Nattie's Progress

The surgery went very well and Nattie is doing great! No fever, the catheter is already out because she keeps peeing around it so much we can't keep her or the bed dry, she is sleeping well and seems to be tolerating the pain. They are keeping her pretty medicated but as needed. Like this morning she had probably been 8 hours or so w/out pain meds before she started getting really irritable. She played for a while and drank a bottle of formula and some apple juice and had a few bites of a biscuit and a waffle(plain and dry both) and then the fussiness set in. So we asked for pain meds and it took her a while but she has finally settled down and is sleeping again. We are waiting for the doc to come and check her out and hopefully tell us that she can go home. The nurse told us that he told her early this morning that he couldn't believe how well she is doing. I am praying that means we can go home this afternoon. She is crying again, I will update more later....
