Mattie had a swallow test Thursday and the results yielded that she needed a thicker formula, we have had great results and she has taken her bottles down. She has had only two feedings through the button. Her physical therapy is going well, we met Tanya our caseworker and she was able to see all of Mattie's progress.
Today after we picked up the hydra-aid thickener, we went over to Panera Bread for lunch. It was very nice. We did a little shopping and then came home for a family nap. Mattie is enjoying her swing right now as I am writing and watching pooh and friends. She is really watching the screen, I am feeling so good about her eyesight. She is really staring at colors, her baby einstein mat keeps her so engaged.
Her picture above was taken this morning. She is weighing 11 lbs 2 oz and is 23 inches long now. She is so beautiful and is too cute!
Keep her in your prayers, she is having a CT scan on Monday, due to a problem with the skull growing together too fast. We hope this will resolve itself but if not she will need a cosmetic t ype of surgery from the neurosurgeon.
Until next time,
The McInroe's-Mattie, Margie & Mark
I love being able to write that-Simple pleasures!
