I Spoke Too Soon

Just when we thought everything was going well with our baby girl, we’ve had a set back. Call me superstitious but I think I kind of jinxed us by talking about all her accomplishments in my last post. I guess things were going too well…

It appears Tegan has some kind of mystery illness that the doctors are trying to figure out. She’s had an abnormal increase in desats (decrease in oxygen levels) & brady’s (decrease in heart rate) that have led the doctors to think there is something wrong. They ran an MRI, EEG and took a lung X-Ray… all came back okay. They did some lab work, too, and that came back fine. Then, they repeated the lab work at a later time and this round, the results came back showing elevated levels. More tests are needed to figure out exactly what ails Baby.

Unfortunately, the past few days have been stressful, frustrating and quite upsetting for us. We’re hoping we’ll have some answers tomorrow and that the doctors will figure out what’s going on with our baby girl. It kills us to see her in so much distress and her little body working so hard. She’s most definitely not herself and we miss seeing our spunky little firecracker. Think positive thoughts for our baby girl!
