I can't actually nurse her right now but I am pumping for her and they are going to send me home with a pump so that I can continue to pump and bring milk in everyday for her. But right now their main mission is to keep her calm and unagitated so she doesn't get worked up (like moving her around and stuff) because that's when she starts to have breathing issues. So they are trying to keep her relatively still. But I am just glad that I will still be able to provide milk for her. When Her breathing starts improving I can start feeding her directly again I believe. But we still don't know everything yet. they did run all those tests but we received so much info so fast I can't remember exactly what each one said. We still have some more meeetings with them so we will know more later.

they definitely let us know that we can call whenever we want to get an update and made sure that we knew that "No news is good news" so if we don't hear anything from them when we are home it means that nothing bad has happened and things are either the same or better. but to feel free to call whenever I feel the need to.

Of course I can come visit her whenever we want to and they will provide us with a "family room" so we can stay all day if we want to. they have been very good to us here and especially now that Hannah is in NICU.

but it's still so scary.

The lactation consultant just came in and said that it was normal for them to not have me nurse for the first 24 hours after she gets sick. She is going to help me get used to pumping but said that I will probably be able to nurse her tomorrow sometime.

Also the pediatrician just came in and he is very optimistic about Hannah. Said it was caught very early and her white cell count is still quite low so she has a very good outlook right now.

They really are great here and are really helping to put us at ease with the whole situation and helping US stay optimistic too.
