Didn't dodge that bullet...

Just got off the phone with the hospital. Going to see my little girl today and feed just as planned, but she's going to be hooked up to an IV. They took blood this morning and ran tests and her Red Blood Cell count was low because they've basically pulled enough, that she needs more blood in her little body. They told us at the beginning that most premies have to have a transfusion to add blood, but since she was so close to coming home, I was almost hoping that we could dodge that one. I was wrong. Still she is doing remarkably well. They are thinking that she will be home soon because as soon as she can hold her temp, she will be able to come home. But they have to add blood to her little body. I hate that. But it's for her, and it will bring her home quicker.
