Swallow Study

Morgan had a follow-up swallow study yesterday to see if we could discontinue thickening her milk. We were surprised that the test showed she wasn't ready yet. As they thinned the liquid more and more, some would go down her air pipe which puts her at risk for pneumonia. Unlike when she had her first swallow study, this time she didn't cry or fuss. Instead of taking the bottle right away she had fun by chewing on the nipple and not wanting to eat. For Easter Sunday service she did the same thing with chewing on her pacifier and likes to laugh when it pops in and out of her mouth. Its amazing in just these last few days how easy it is to make her smile and laugh.

Happy Late Easter....
