Prayer Request

At about 8:30 this evening, Declan had to be admitted to ICU cause he was spitting up green bile. They weren't sure why, so they inserted a tube in through his nose to pump fluid from his stomach, they also took X-rays. At this point they are thinking he most likely swallowed meconium. They are monitoring him closely overnight and Robin is not allowed to feed him, so they inserted an IV. By morning, if all goes well, they will unhook him and try breast feeding again. Worst case, if he continues to spit up green bile, they think it can be that his intestines may be twisted. If so, they would immediately transfer him to another hospital for surgery. Your prayers are very much appreciated and I will update when I can.
