Jade came home today!! It has been two weeks since she was born. We were so excited that the doctors let her come home today. She feeds through a tube that runs down her nose into her stomach. Becs and I had to be trained on how to put in the tube correctly and everything. It is a little strange to be feeding her with a tube into her stomach, but it is great to have her home. She has a lot of follow up doctor's appointments. She has a million doctors appointments over the next couple of months. Of course she has her regular Pediatrician to go to. In addition to that she has to go see her team of Neurologists at CHOP still, plus she also has to go to a Neuro-muscular clinic in Phili. She also has to go back to the team of Genetecists she has been seeing at CHOP. Then she has to go to a Physical Therapist to help with her muscle tone and an optomologists to re-check her eyes. Finally she has to go to Speach Therapist to help with her sucking. (I know, it sounded wierd to me too.) Thank goodness for insurance.
Anyway, Becs is waiting to get on the computer. I'll just upload a couple of pictures from today, and I'll write again later.
