6pm Update
Aug 08, 2011
Just gave Sweet Pea her 5pm feed and now we are headed to get some dinner too.
My parents drove over with Little Bug and it did my heart a world of good to see my big girl. I've been away from her longer than I ever have before. My parents are doing a phenominal job of taking care of Little Bug and keeping her in line. That right there eliminates so much stress for me.
Sweet Pea is doing well. Honestly I think she does better when we are there with her. The only bad reports I've ever gotten with her have been when we are not there in the night. I don't doubt that she is experiencing some withdrawals but I also know she tends to score lower when we are present.
I've figured out a little routine with her today. The nurse this morning told me the best thing to do was to figure out what comforts Sweet Pea. I've done alot of figuring today and Sweet Pea has had a peaceful day.
We are just taking this one day at a time. I cannot tell you how much the comments mean to me. It is overwhelming that people so many people care!
I am at peace. This too shall pass.
