The doctors moved her back into our little room. When I walked in and asked where she was the doctor said now that she is in the bassinet everyone can hear her loud 'hungry cry.' She was waking up all the other babies so they moved her back in her room... ha.
Eleanor had her two month vaccinations. She screamed during each of the three shots, but in between the shots she was perfectly content. The shots gave her a slight fever and they told me that she would feel pain. I stayed with her and held her while she got her fever. She was so precious. I gave her a bottle but she only took 15 ml before starting to feel bad. As she started to feel better she got really hungry. She took the rest of the bottle very well.
The doctors are now mixing rice cereal into the breast milk. Eleanor loves it! It is adding calories to her feedings and making the milk heavier - easier for her to keep it down.
One of the nurses told me that she is going to miss Eleanor when she goes home... little hint that maybe it will be soon!
