Reflux hits with a vengeance.....

Although we were lucky enough to avoid reflux while we were in the hospital, it has hit us with a vengeance this past week! Poor Reed has projectile vomitted for the past 2 days. He started Zantac last Friday, which has helped with the stomach pains. However, he gags often and actually hurls once a day. Being so little, gagging is super scary - for him and me! This is nothing that we can't handle, though....very minor compared to all we could have encountered to this point. Praying for fewer tummy aches and less vomitting for our little one.
Today I'm thankful for insurance! I will never complain about having to pay for insurance again. I totalled up the current charges for Reed's stay in Macon - $358+ thousand!!!! However, we only owe (as of right now) right at $2,000. God is SO GOOD!!! Reed's birth weight qualified him for Medicaid coverage while in the hospital. However, we weren't told about it until about 2 weeks before we came home. We are still waiting to see what they will cover of his bills.
Love those babies and enjoy every minute you have with them....another baby was lost in NNICU last night in Macon, which could have so easily been our little Reed according to medical personnel...but not according to the Almighty Healer! Love to all,
