As a mama of four boys (one with an extraordinary heart), worry happens.

Especially for Marshall. How do I divide the normal newborn stuff from the heart baby stuff?

Especially now.

There is no way to sugar coat this: Marshall is worrying me tremendously.  His well baby checkup yesterday was fine (he is up to seven pounds four ounces ) but he hasn’t been himself.  Life for him the past two days has been without as many smiles as we typically see. Yesterday was full of too much sleep without as many feeds.

By last night he was congested & his breathing was alarming so I called Boston and followed their advice. 

This morning he threw up.

So I called back.

We have been instructed to watch him closely and report what we observe back to boston by 5. 

Send good strong thoughts please…
