It can be hard when babies won't drink. Have you tried popsicles? You can make a pop of formula, watered down apple juice, pedialyte, whatever. It may be soothing to his little mouth/lip and could be a way of getting some fluids into him. Hang in there!<BR/>-JessJess Sattlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02496691320103717943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366036835633596373.post-56716260138243785112008-10-03T18:58:00.000-07:002008-10-03T18:58:00.000-07:00ok hun..... hang in there.. aaron only drank 4 oz ...ok hun..... hang in there.. aaron only drank 4 oz in 24 hours. stay on top of his pain meds!!! and as darcy said the coedine suppreses the appitite.... once he is 36 hours post op you can start giving him ibuprofen.. that really helped aaron alot!!! wishing you the best of luck..... you will see a difference on day 4 or 5.... hang in there mommaKaren mom to Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14425674774032327808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366036835633596373.post-54937161738518421432008-10-03T16:21:00.000-07:002008-10-03T16:21:00.000-07:00What a little trooper. 1) Perhaps try giving him s...What a little trooper. <BR/><BR/>1) Perhaps try giving him some Pedialyte. If he'll just drink some of that, it'll keep him hydrated. If he'll drink for Nana, let her do it before you get frustrated. <BR/><BR/>I know how frustrating it is that he's not drinking. if he's still taking Tylenol with Coedine, remember that that also acts as an appetite suppressant. <BR/><BR/>2) Amazing at him hearing the A/C kick on! Yea! You might want to think about putting a humidifier or even a fan (up where he or Alexis can't touch it) but it would act as white noise for him and maybe drown out those other noises during nap times.Darcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12661633527521636573noreply@blogger.com
