We went home from the hospital monday morning. Maya is still only eating from a syringe or small sips from a cup. As far as solids go she pretty much only eats bread, cheerios or crackers. Keeping her hydrated is almost a full time job - we really have to stay on top of it with the syringe.
Last night she did start taking larger amounts of pumped breastmilk from the syringe and continued doing that today. Since I'm not used to pumping I am having a hard time keeping up pumping enough for her so thank goodness I have some in the freezer from when we were at the hospital.
She still acts like she wants to nurse but just won't do it.
We are planning on leaving on friday for Wisconsin (we were originally suppose to go today), I figure if she hasn't started nursing again here by that point then a change of scenery certainly won't hurt anything.

Hey Krista!
Mary from Texas. I am sorry to see that your baby Girl, Maya is not feeling well. My entire family will be at my Aunts lake house, specifically the 8th. So, if you are in the area, give us a call and come by!
I'll email you Marilyn's number and my cell phone so we can at least chat!
Love,
MK
Krista,
I'm sorry to see that Miss Maya has been sick! How scary to have to be in the hospital with her. I hope that she is feeling better and back to nursing like normal. I'll say a little prayer for you guys.
April
