For those of you who are not on Facebook with me, a little update is in order. Sunday night, Sweet Pea was exhibiting signs of respiratory distress. So the pediatrician sent us to the ER to have her checked out. All test results came back okay and there was nothing emergent that needed to be addressed immediately, so we were sent back home to be followed by the pediatrician the next day. At the pediatrician’s yesterday, it turns out she has a slight heart murmur. So here I sit at the cardiologist’s waiting to have her tested to see what is going on. The pediatrician doesn’t believe this is going to be any kind of major issue, so I’m hoping for the best, but it’s still pretty worrisome and triggering to me because this is how it all started with Miracle Man originally. He had a slight murmur that ended up needing the heart surgery a couple of weeks later and has several other heart conditions that are being closely followed still. Many people have heart murmurs and do not need interventions. It just scares me because of Miracle Man’s history. But I’m going to stay positive and hope for great results today! This will be four ER/doc visits/appointments for her in four days...feels sooooo much like history repeating itself. #blogpost #congenitalheartdisease #heartmurmur #newborn #notthisagain #respiratorydistress
