Sleepless nights

We were so excited to see my OB this week, who also was able to deliver Dawson! You couldn’t ask for a better doctor who is truly concerned and cares for her patients! Her staff have really set the bar high in comparison to other offices as well, they are so kind and attentive! We will miss seeing them (in a way haha)!

Dawson has seen his pediatrician twice now, and weighs 8.5 lbs! He’s growing so fast! We have figured out, by our multiple doctor visits, that he sure loves to ride around in the car; guess it runs in the family, or so I hear, lol! We are currently working on our referrals to Dallas since OKC doesn’t offer the same quality of service when it comes to the Apert specialized field. We do already have an appointment there, but having to get everything in order. Pray that insurance doesn’t give us too much grief! The Dr. feels that his desats could be being caused by acid reflux, which also could be why he has been so very fussy! We are trying to find out the causes of his crying since coming home. He will be getting his next MRI soon and it will hopefully help to rule headaches out as well. Being a newborn, it may just be colic alone that’s keeping mom and dad up day and night lol.

We have spoken to many people over the past couple of weeks, trying to figure out what the near future looks like, it has been so very busy trying to figure out each step, but we’re slowly getting some answers concerning his immediate care. We have a Physical Therapist now scheduled to come out weekly, which will be so good for him. Also, it looks like we may be getting a nurse to help us here at the house, he requires a LOT of attention, especially compared to just a normal newborn, and if that gets approved, will help us tremendously! It’s difficult to care for him and the two other kiddos efficiently at this point.

This is all there is for an update as of right now. As busy as I am, I’m hoping to post an update at least once per week. So be on the watch out for that! Thank you to each of you that are still continuing to pray and reach out to us!
