Serenity: 13 weeks 3 days (Gestation: 37 weeks 5 days)

Today marks a pretty big milestone for Serenity Hope. Today she is 3 pounds! I cannot express how excited we are about that number!!

Despite the weight gain, Serenity is still not being fed due to her gut issues. (I can only credit everyone's prayers being heard, for that.) She had an x-ray that showed some sort of blockage in her intestine. What that blockage is, we are not sure yet. Her stomas are both edematous (holding fluid) so that may be the cause of some of the problem--creating blockage in the intestine from being swollen and causing everything to back-up into her stomach.

Thankfully, with the help of some Lasix getting fluid off of her lungs, her oxygen levels have been able to go down some from what they were the other day, which is good.

As far as updates go, I believe that is all--Besides the fact that she is cute as a button and as sassy as can be. :)
