So...There has been a lot of whining, crying, screaming, and hitting in this house since Sunday night. No...not Jason! teehee! Ok. You know who I'm talking about. Sunday night wasn't much fun. Jack was up most of the night. Monday involved a lot of cuddles and kisses. Jack played for a short while on the floor but mostly wanted to be held while he moaned. Monday night, Jackson didn't go to sleep until 1am. He was up at 3am and 6am and then slept until 10am. Tuesday also involved a lot of cuddles and kisses. There were times when he asked to play, and even laughed and talked. He has been trying to feel better but it is oh so obvious that he is in pain. It's a mixture of his belly, head, and nose.
I called the ENT surgeon's office today to ask about better pain management. I made sure to let them know that Jack was fussing and moaning still, just like when in the hospital. I was told that Tylenol and Motrin were the only pain meds we could use (which we are already using with no relief). The doctor didn't want to prescribe Tylenol with Codeine or something like Morphine or Vicadin. Pretty much any med that can cause constipation. They don't want the ileus to come back.
UGH! So very frustrating. I pray tomorrow is better. Jason and I have been taking turns holding a fussing and moaning Jack.
