Just wanted to let you all know that today the Doctors decided to stop the suction of Dominic's bile! This is a small step forward, but I'll take what I can get! They're going to see how it goes with letting gravity work its magic and see if maybe his intestines have started working at all. Ideally he'll start pooping and the bile won't come up the tube or out his mouth, so that's what we're praying for now. PRAY FOR POOP! =) When he starts to poop regularly, they can start feeding him.
Also today the Doctors decided to stop replacing fluids at the 1:1 ratio that they were doing. This is because he's putting out a lot less bile than he was before, so there isn't a need to give him additional fluids.
Dominic has been much happier these past 2 days, fussing a lot less than that one day. Hopefully this means he's not in pain and that things are moving along as they should, so we'll see!!
Thanks for all the continued support!
Stephanie
