You ladies are all amazing. All your positive thoughts have made their way through as we didn't end up with Heidi in surgery today which has been a massive relief. I almost fell in a heap just from sheer exhaustion this morning. She must have listened to me giving her a stern talking to late last night as she is slowly moving things through her bowel. Slowly, ever so slowly, but things are moving all the same. Her 8am xray showed that the dye has moved & was on its way out. She had also done a couple of little poos this morning - I've never seen a surgeon so excited about two little poos! So based on that result the surgeon didn't want to investigate today. Surgery may still be on the cards in the next little while if things don't continue to progress, but we've managed a reprieve from that stress for now. They may repeat the dye test in the next 4-5 days to hoepfully see her pass it quicker - in 24 hrs is what they expect - she's taken over 48hrs to pass this lot so its slow - bit still progress. There is still no telling whether she does have a constriction or areas of inflammation in her bowel - we just have to keep our fingers crossed.

The stress of prepping her, talking to the anaesthetists, signing consent forms etc. has just wiped me out. DP brought me home and put me in bed for the afternoon, and just woke me to express. So I've had a bit of rest. Didnt help that DS woke last night with the cold he has and teething too. Plus I have a scratchy throat AGAIN so I'm hoping like mad that I don't succumb and have to be away from my girl. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

Love to you all for sending your thoughts to Heidi, it means the world to us xx
