Parker in NICU

Well, Parker was moved to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit last night due to low blood sugar. The doctors say it is nothing to worry about. They need to watch him closely so that they can work to bring his blood sugar to more normal levels. Right now he is on a sugar water drip. His levels look good and he should be able to go home with us tomorrow. Poor guy had to get stuck twice (once in each arm) for his IV. Good thing he won't remember any of this when he is older.


Notice the IV in Parker's left arm in this picture.



Notice the IV in Parker's right arm in this picture. Apparently, the tape was causing an allergic reaction on Parker's skin so they had to move it.
