Well it has been very interesting trying to adjust to Chatham and the many changes and differences from the London hospital. I was so happy that the pediatrician that was in the ambulance with me when I was in labor was the pediatrician on the day of my transfer.. therefore she took Deecon on as her patient. This made the transfer easier because Dr. Edwards is an awesome doctor and made me feel really comfortable. She mad some great changes with Deecon, first taking him off the human milk fortifier and putting him on straight breastmilk, which I 
was soooo excited for :) She a
lso decided to stop one of his meds called maxeran.. Deecon had been on this medicine most of his life so she thought she would attempt to discontinue it and see what happened. Deecon had some a
djustments to Chatham, struggling with his bottle feeds. Even with the change in meds Deecon is doing very well but unfortunately has been refluxing more than we would like so the Dr. prescribed a new medicine called domperidone.. this medicine will help to empty out his stomach quicker so that there is nothing to reflux. Being in Chatham has made it possible for more visitors to be able to get to know and hold Deecon. Deecon's sister's Anastasia and Mackenna were so excited that Deecon was 
in Chatham. They loved their first visit with him where they got to 
hold and bath him. For Valentine's Day they made Deecon the cutest lil Valentine's cards :) They love their baby brother so much, they are both such great helpers and awesome big sisters xoxo Daddy was so excited too that Deecon was home, so that he could see him everyday before he went to work. He could help bath him and start to learn to feed him :) And of course Mommy was very excited, she could spend more time up at the hospital and sleep in her own bed at night... ;) Next he will be home :)
