Not the most fun weekend

Saturday started out poorly. We had gotten a call that they'd identified the infection as Strep-B, and wanted to take a sample of her cerebro-spinal fluid to culture. This is done with a Lumbar Puncture. (aka "LP") This is not something I'd like to watch being done on my wee girl.

Saturday evening, we got to talk to the doctors about what had gone on and what was ongoing. She was showing no signs of meningitis or other complications of the skin infection, but if the spinal fluid showed signs of the bugs, she'd be on IV antibiotics for four to six weeks. First reports on the fluid looked good though. (phew)

I got to hold her on Sunday while I fed her. Once the feeding was done, Mum went off to pump and Elizabeth and I had a little nap together. (The nurse took her away and put her back in bed when she noticed this, as she was afraid I'd drop her. I haven't dropped one yet though.) That was nice.

And, because our fridge packed it in last week, we spent the rest of the weekend looking at new ones. Yaay.
