A Prayer Request

Everything is still going well, but there is one little hitch in the works at this point. She's decided that she doesn't want to drink. She eats yogurt and baby food very well, but will not drink water or juice, or any clear liquids. Please pray that she'll get over whatever her little hang-up is on drinking.

Hope your girl will get well really soon!

Rachel did the same thing a couple of days after her palate repair. It is stressful and worrysome because babies can dehdrate so quickly. See if she'll take some chicken broth, with as salty as that is, perhaps it might make her thirsty for water.

Also, if you add just a little bit of water to her baby food, to make it a little more soupy, she'll get fluids that way too, and she'll think that she's just eating her baby food.

You'll be in my prayers tonight.

Glad to hear she's doing well, and I pray she'll quickly get over this idea that liquids aren't for her!
