So, over the weekend we discovered traces of blood in BJ's stool. My mom and I took him to the pediatrician first thing Monday morning and they ordered a blood test to see if he has food allergies. We took BJ to the walk-in Children's Pediatrics center where we discovered that BJ's veins are, well, uncooperative. The nurses stuck him in his right arm and left foot but were not successful in getting any blood. It was so hard to see my baby in so much pain! The nurse would stick the needle in and then dig around in hopes of striking the vein. BJ was looking up at me, screaming, and squeezing my fingers with both hands! It was if he was saying "Mommy, help me!!" I cried!! The worst part is that they didn't collect any blood so we need to go back tomorrow. This time they will stick his heel and milk the blood out of him. Daddy's going to try to come for support. Thanks for your prayers!
