Guest guest Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Just wanted to let everyone know how it all turned out I had a form I had written up and had kept missing the ped..and went into labor unexpectedly on my own so forgot to take my remedies, the form with me to the hospital, and my book I bought for L and d w/ remedies... So I'm filling out all the admit paperwork and decline the vaccine and I say 'I don't want the vita k shot either " they say to talk to the nursery about that. OK.. Later I get asked if all the rest had had it and I say yes but I don't want him to have it now. Dh accompanied the baby to the nursery and he said they had a form where he could check off what he wanted and what he didn't want and one of them was for vita K.... very easy, non confrontational and painless. Way cool!!!!!! My kind of smooth sailing! (and he nursed all night long, no bottle at all!!!!! I was so excited! My milk is finally coming in better) one morning while we were feeding the baby, there was a dr. in there checking w/ another doctor on what to do for a baby that had been born to both parents having the flu... 'they're too young to get the flu shot " ...and I'm looking at dh mouthing " thank goodness!!!!! " b/c I did not want Isaac to be forced to have a flu shot. The baby in question was in the warmer next to Isaac. So they decided to send the baby (born w/ a weight of 4-12) up to Birmingham and put the parents on respiratory isolation. At least I got to hold mine for a bit....this course meant they weren't going to see their baby at all for at least a week while she did her recovery. I hope they have a lot of support.. dad works at sonic (fast food joint).. not thinking they have a lot of money for trips/hotels to b'ham. He was in his uniform checking on the baby at the same time we were doing one of our feedings.---plus he's working while he has the flu?! Sounds scary. Nita, yes my hands are full, but not my heart: 14, Jon 13, 10, 8, 6, Christian (RIP: 7/16/03 to 8/22/04), 2, and Isaac, 2/3/08 Some minds are like concrete: Thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.
