E.R.

    My sister in-law and niece took me to visit Cole. Their Grandpa is in the hospital too. So it was nice that they could help me out and visit him too. Today's surprise when I got to the hospital was Cole now has a belly button! He did well at nursing and we even cuddled for a little bit.

 
     Jenny said there visit went well. It was just hard to see him so unhappy.  He misses her grandma and worries about her. And the pills that he is taking makes food not taste good. So he is having a hard time wanting to eat.

   Mark had a couple of meetings Saturday afternoon. I was home with the kids when I started bleeding. It seemed like a lot for what it should be right now. I talked to my Dr. and she said to watch it for one more hour. The next hour was lighter so I took a nap. But when I woke up I was bleeding more, so I thought that I would wait the next hour and see. It was close but not as much, but I had been bleeding a lot aready. So I called the Dr again and she told me to come in to the ER to be checked out. They did a couple different tests and did not find anything that would make them think that the bleeding would not stop soon.  The Dr said that at about two weeks  after giving birth where the placenta was hooked to the uterus there is a scab that comes off and can cause bleeding. We feel like because I'm low in the blood area I most likely didn't clot as fast as normal, and that is why I had so much bleeding.
     Because we went to the ER we were not able to go to the hospital to hold Cole. So I called the hospital and asked the nurse that night to hold him for a little bit for us.
