Aubrey's night nurse said she had 3 episodes during the night. She spit up a couple of times, but also filled up her diaper a time or two...at least we know that part is working right. She forgot to tell me her weight and I forgot to ask, so we'll find out when we get to the hospital this afternoon.
Could y'all please pray that she gets a handle on these episodes and they go away soon? They are hard on her and her little body--it's never good for one to turn blue--but this is also selfish on my part. I feel like each one of these episodes is slowly breaking me. I don't know how many more I can watch and hold her through and not end up in the mental ward. I feel like such a wimp knowing that so many people have gone through so much worse, but this is what I have right now. My child, my way-too-teeny-tiny baby, is still struggling and I can't do a single thing about it except pray. God won't get mad when I say that sometimes it seems like my prayers hit the ceiling and bounce back down and smack me in the head; He already knows I feel like that some days. The frustration is just overwhelming.

7p.m.
The nurse said she thought Aubrey did a little better today than yesterday. When Adam and I got to the hospital, my mom was there with her. She said that Aubrey managed to fill 3 diapers up in quick succession while the nurse was trying to change her--that part definitely works right! We both got to hold her for a while and she did well. Adam got baptized for the first time with baby seepage--she spit up and it ran down on to his shirt. :) The ultrasound tech came in to do a cranial ultrasound on her; we didn't know that was going to happen, but I guess we'll get the results in a day or two.

Adam looked at the cranial ultra sound and said that everything looked good...not that he's an expert or anything.
