9. Hospital day two-check!

June 10 2014

Otto was transferred to the floor today. He spent most of the day pretty darn well, he’s still pretty good but around midday he became very disinterested in eating and drinking. Then he threw up several times. By 9 pm he’d thrown up 4 times (all bile in the end) and hasn’t really consumed anything since 1:30 pm.
The doctors are keeping an eye on him. We expressed our fear of dehydration and the plan is that we will watch him. If he throws up again before 11 p.m. they will iv him and get him fluids.
What is weird is that he’s been in awesome spirits. He barely napped today and was really thrilled to have nana, papa, grandma, auntie Erin and Anna come visit.
We had a visit from a couple of clowns. Otto got his bandage off (disclaimer..I’m going to include the incision photo at the very bottom of this post). He’s rolling a bit, he doesn’t have any mobility restrictions. His strength is not what it was since they cut through muscle so it’s more exhausting to lift up that noggin but he did it for short periods of time today.
So we will see how it goes. Before the throwing up things were looking very much like we may be discharged but now I’m not so sure.

Xoxo
