Rough Night

I was asked to sleep on an arm chair in the room with Tehilla, as they were short staffed. So, I didn't sleep at all, and neither did Tehilla. 

She cried the whole night and wouldn't be settled. At her 5:00am feeding she threw up all her milk and they realized that her infusion line was out of the vein and now her entire left side of her chest and arm are incredibly swollen. Which explains all the crying.

She was given Tylenol for the pain and has cold compresses to take down the swelling. They also put in a feeding tube. They gave her 5cc of milk with a bottle before, and she was fine. They are going to do that again soon and if it goes well then they will continue to try to feed her by mouth. If not, then they will feed her by feeding tube.
