Downsizing

Annie will have her central line removed today (one of her infections is in the central line). Unfortunately, they will have to rely on a peripheral IV which is, I hope I get this right, not entirely able to get the same level of supplemental nutrients into her. However, Annie seems to be allmost too plump right now so the docs aren't that concerned. Removing the line won't impact her antibiotics which is awesome. Annie is also taking larger and larger amounts of breast milk during her feeds (she is at 10ccs) and my milk can be fortified to help her out. Regardless, we would have done this anyway -the presence of the infection is just causing us to work a little faster.
