Nationwide Childrens Hospital Day 2

We were here a few minutes before 8am to be admitted this morning. We have had extremely nice staff. Spoke with two doctors, a child life specialist,  and different nurses.
We had an xray. His belly wasn't as full as it has been in the past since we had given him lots of meds prior to getting here. We were given the option of trying a higher dose of meds right now instead of the NG tube. So we are trying that right now. So far we are still not clear but we are hoping for the best. More med's coming soon.

He was a trooper by the way when putting his IV in. Very impressed how they prepared for it. Emela cream applied along with mini heat packs to make sure they could get a good vein. Momma likes good nursing skills. Speaking of good nursing skills ...He was not crying but when taking his blood pressure and heart rate they were both elevated. They did not waste any time to alert the doctor and checked it several times.

We have walked around a little and visited the playroom.
