Tomorrow??

Kelson was wide awake for most of the morning.  There were lots of nurses stopping by to check on him, and asking me when he was going home.  Unfortunately, I still did not have an answer.  The doctor did not have an answer during the morning rounds.   Finally I had an opportunity to visit with the doctor, and he said he would discharge us tomorrow, pending the results of the MRI.  The MRI was scheduled for 1:30 PM.  They took Kelson down for the test.  The goal was for Kelson to be asleep and to lie still in order for the scan to be accurate.  Apparently, Kelson did not want to cooperate, and therefore did not complete the MRI.  They are going to repeat the test tomorrow under sedation.  I really dont understand why they did not sedate him today, but they must have assumed they could reason with a 10 week old and just expect him to lie still. Kelson is still eating well, and had his biggest feeding last night, eating over 3 oz in one feeding.  Tonight he weighed about 7 lb 5 oz. He is almost up to his birth weight of 7 lb 12 oz (over 4 lb of which were fluid). Tomorrow Krista and I have full expectations of leaving the hospital with Kelson.  We are not sure what will happen with the MRI, or what time we might get to leave, but we are planning on Kelson taking his first breath of outside air, and spending the night in our home.  I'm guessing we won't sleep a wink though!
