Well today we took E & P to the hospital. It was an appt just for E to have some bloods taken but it turned into much more. We arrived a few minutes before 12 and E's usual Dr saw us waiting and we all got talking. We started to mention about P not gaining much weight and last 6-8 hours on just 2-4oz of milk and they agreed it wasn't right. They weighed her (10lb 8oz)and also noticed she hadn't gained much weight. After weighing she also had some bloods taken which she wasn't pleased about. Then the dietitian, us & the Dr agreed P having a nasal tube would benefit her and was needed :(
She goes in on Wednesday to have it put down and will have to be in for a few days to see of she tolerates it. Luckily we wont be in a week like we where with E's as we know how to work the pumps, unless she doesn't tolerate it.
I was so gutted but know it will be for the best before her weight starts to decline rapidly like E's did.
