So we went to get Sofia's ouchie looked at and the nurse and doctor said we have been doing a good job taking care of it. That makes us feel good. Instead of putting acid on the skin they decided to just give us pads to put in between her skin and the button. This padding has antibiotics on it so it should help with redness and drainage we have been seeing. We shall see.
One doctor appointment down only about 3 more appointments (scheduled) to go this summer.

Ouch!
So Sofia has developed a minor ouchie associated with her feeding tube. When anyone gets a feeding tube they end up developing tissue that turns out of the opening of the tube (?). Well when that happens it is painful and sometimes parents wait too long and it can get really bad (believe me when I say REALLY BAD because we have seen the pictures). Well luckily for us we have caught it at a point that it is just starting to do that so we are taking Sofia in on Friday to essentially get the tissue burned off. Not looking forward to that and thank goodness over our short stays in the hospital I have developed a thick skin to things they do to her, just as long as they aren't doing too many painful things at one time.
