Rough Day!!

OK, so our daughter has been acting very weird the last few days, always croutching down on the legs of toys and chairs, kinda like "ride the pony" sitting, with anything hard in between her legs. She has also been very tender when we were wiping her and she would try to close her legs. I took her to the doctors today. We got a urine sample and it came back with alot of blood and white blood cells. So, they said that she has a UTI and they needed to send off a sterile specimen to do a culture to pick the right antibiotics. They had to straight cath my little angel!! It broke my heart. She was laying, screaming on the table and she kept looking at me and saying "get down" and then she would say "go night-night". Talk about heart-wrenching!! So they were using a 5 french catheter on her because it is the smallest they had and they wanted it to be as comfortable for her as possible, but she was so worked up that once the cath was in, she started urinating AROUND the cath, and we were only able to get about 7cc's of sterile urine. They called the lab, and thankfully, they were able to run a culture on that little amount. They were ordering it as a STAT, and I actually saw the lab courier vhiecle pulling in as we were pulling out. She has been running a low-grade temp all day, and if it goes over 100.4, no matter what time, we have to call the on-call doctor. They gave me a prescription for bactrim, but we are holding off on giving it to her until the culture and sensitivity come back. I don't want to give it to her for a few days, just to find out that it is not effective against her infection and have to give her another antibiotic. I do not like all these drugs for my little angel. We will hopefully have the preliminary report back tomorrow, if not Saturday. Please pray for a quick diagnosis and uneventful course of treatment. We got some cranberry juice that we will make part of her daily drinkings now, to hopefully keep this from happening again.

On the baby front, I ovulated 2 days ago, but I am not holding my breath!! My wonderful husband just keeps reminding me that "it only takes one" and it happened once already, so it could again. Please pray with us for another blessing.

I will update once we get some test results.
