So I talked to Dr. Jones' nurse today. Basically, she kept assuring me that if Dr. Jones thought it needed immediate attention, he would be taking immediate action. And the PET scan didn't show anything else abnormal in any other part of my body, so I think we'll just wait and see what the CT scan shows in a few months.
The next thing to deal with is the continued nursing problems. Things have definitely improved significantly. I was still have some mild pain, but it was tolerable. Milo is still clamping and chomping. We know he is not tongue tied, its not my milk flow, and its not positioning. I just do not have any clue why he continues to clamp. And I noticed some blood this evening, so apparently I've got another crack. Great. Boy is this super frustrating. I'm going to try and really exhaust all my resources, but if we can't figure it out... we'll have to move on to pumping/bottle feeding. I really, really don't want to. I mean, the most important thing to me is that he is still getting breast milk, but what a hassle!! I love having the milk ready on hand at any second... and not having any dishes to wash. I'll do what I have to do, but I really, really, really hope we can get Milo to stop clamping. And I'm not strongly opposed to formula... but its just not the same as breast milk. We'll see what we can figure out!
