Our second grandson (first child of one of my daughters) was born on Monday night and came back to my daughter's house today. Earlier this evening the little guy coughed up some brownish gunk that looked like it could be oxidized blood. My daughter and son in law took him back to the hospital to get checked out. I would appreciate any prayers for this little angel! Thank you!

So, after coming back from the hospital last night (everything was ok, and again, thank you for your prayers!), they were all up most of the night with the baby crying. They had a post-birth checkup already scheduled back at the hospital today, so my wife drove our daughter and baby there (husband was totally worn out :) ) and the baby was dehydrated! They are trying to give him pedialite, and hopefully will not need to do IV fluid replenishment. He may have to have breast milk supplemented with formula if he doesn't start gulping that natural milk down. Newborns are a joy and not so much joy sometimes :)
