A good day

Today has been a good day. I am starting to feel better and move around better since my c-section. Also, we went back to see Colt after the anesthesia wore off.He was more alert than we've ever seen him. Since we can't be with him all the time, we don't get to see those certain faces or noises he makes. We've never even changed his diaper. The nurses have been great at telling us little cute things that he does and funny noises he'll make. I really appreciate the nurses in the NICU because they're helping me not miss out on so many things. The nurse also said he had been pooping alot. She had to keep changing his diaper. She said that was a very good sign. The whole blockage could've been that the merconium (the tar like poop that babies have when they are first born). Sometimes the poop is so tarry that it blocks the intestine. So this morning they did this irrigation thing that was supposed to help cleanse him. Well, it's working cause he's pooped alot today. So we're not getting out hopes up. HE could still have this Hirschsprungs disease and if he does, we'll deal with it. But it would be wonderful if he doesn't have it. We would be able to take him home. We still won't take him home with us tomorrow either way. If he doesn't have the disease, they will still keep him for a few days to see how well he eats and digests it. So alot of things will be decided tomorrow. I hope they dont wait all day to contact us. We're gonna stay at the hospital as long as we can tomorrow. I think we have to be out by midnight. So please, please, please everyone say your prayers tonight that he will be disease free and we can take our precious boy home very soon! Here's a few more pictures from today.
