Vivienne had a better day today, but she still spent a few hours being very upset. It's pretty apparent that she is colicky and is still dealing with withdrawal symptoms (which makes her less able to reign in her emotions when she feels the discomfort caused by the colic). The team was originally planning on a Friday discharge but decided to push the date back due to Viv's continued distress. They want to see her improve before they send her home. Dave and I are a little annoyed since there's nothing that can be done for her here that we can't do at home. Plus we just think she'll be happier once she's out of the hospital. The team wants to ensure that there isn't another reason for her distress. This is very unlikely, but I suppose we can't blame them for being extra cautious. We are just beyond ready to get out of here.
Sorry for the lack of pictures lately. Viv has been keeping our hands full these past few days and hasn't had many photogenic moments. Hopefully I'll be able to capture a smile again soon!
