for all the losses and 
moments.
Thanks for all your nice comments. My tiny human is doing well. There was a bit of a fiasco at the hospital on Tuesday where her surgeon said she could eat after passing gas, and I told several nurses and specifically asked if she could have jello and they said her order said clears only, I told them the dr said she could after passing gas but just kept being told they'd check. Finally the supervising nurse came in and I told her and she said that jello IS a clear.. I was so upset. My kid hadn't eaten in 44 hours at this point. The nurse brought her some jello, then the supervisor ordered her a tray w/ more jello, and icy and a drink. The supervisor said she changed her order, but the next morning when I tried to order her food they said it still said clears. SMH... She called someone and fixed it. It was ridiculous. We got to go home on Wed. She's able to eat, but has to be careful b/c she's never been able to eat like a normal person (stomach pain stopped her from eating too much, not it doesn't hurt!). She's also surprised by how quickly she's hungry again b/c her stomach never emptied properly. Your small intestine is supposed to look like a C when it leaves the stomach and go down, hers went up and was like an n! So for her stomach to empty it had to defy gravity. She also had a lot of bands that were strangling her intestines. The surgeon gave me some pics and showed me some of the things he fixed. She still has soreness on her abdomen, but her stomach no longer hurts and doesn't hurt when she eats. She has 3 small incisions on her stomach and 1 larger on in her belly button. She's tired and still recovering, but is doing great! I'm sure I'm not the only person who was excited & happy when the surgeon tells them they had to fix a lot of stuff in their kid, but I was so happy that they found something and were able to do something about it. I was worried they'd get in there and find nothing wrong and we'd still be in the same place we've been for all these years. I'm kind of hopefully that this might help with her migraines too.
Loki & the babies are good. While I was in the hospital they kept spilling their food so now the babies are all gross. I need to was them off tonight and get them puffed back up. They're a week old now. I need to make them a bigger space, the small cage isn't cutting it anymore. What's the consensus on when babies are old enough to be out w/ the general population? Also, do you all give the babies medicated feed?

for all the losses and moments.bahahahahhaaaa! It's like w/ human babies too. They close their eyes and mama is gone forever.Poor momma just wants to do things her way!!!Good luck with the fuzz but duty! I am sure they will get it eventually, and probably faster than mine did. Bubbles doesn't ever walk up the ramp. She just flies straight up to the door of the coop. I think her poor babies thought she was disappearing via magic
They were so confused!
