Yes, we are indeed going home today! The doctor is finishing some paperwork, and then we will be able to go. :)
The upper GI test the doctors ran on Levi revealed "moderate reflux," so they are giving him a prescription for Zantac. Perhaps this will stop what he used to do at home: constant groaning (seemingly about his tummy) all night! This reflux issue seemed secondary to me--not really related to why we entered the hospital in the first place--but the doctor said that reflux could have made Levi's breathing/congestion/infection worse.
I'm so glad to get home, take a shower, and get back to normal!

Oh Katie--I'm so glad you are getting to go home with Levi! I thought I had a bad day yesterday, and then I read your blog entries--it had been a little while--and felt so trivial. I am so glad to see that he's doing better, and that the doctors found something else that needed to be taken care of, too! Hope you're all better in the comfort of your own home with your sis, too!!
Great News!
AWESOME news!!!! Sooo happy!
Zoe was on Zantac for a while... then my pediatrician recommended adding a spoon of rice cereal or a spoon of formula to her breatmilk to thicken it a teeny tiny bit... that helped amazingly! ;)
SOOOO happy he is going home!
Yay! Congrats to everyone in the Varela family for making it though a tough 2 weeks!
