Day 2 postop #4

So, today Nathan woke up with a cheek that is not so swollen, now its about the size of a golf ball. The poor little guy, he is slowly but surely increasing his bottle intake. I forgot to mention yesterday that the pediatrician at the hospital did a blood test on Nathan yesterday and they found his Hemoglobin low, so he will need to be on iron supplement starting in one to two weeks. Then we are to follow with our pediatrician to see what his number is in about 6 to 8 weeks. It's amazing how much of a trooper the little man is, last night he wouldn't let me put him in his crib again but he did sleep for a few hours at a time in my arms. I got to take a shower this morning (yay!). We should be on our way home tomorrow. They decreased his IV so his appetite is increasing. He had 4oz of formula within 2 hours. Love my little man so much, he sure is a little trooper.
