Fill #8

Can't believe we are at fill #8 tonight and only 3 to go if everything goes as planned.  We are less then a month away to surgery #10.  His bubbles are getting so big and having a hard time finding clothes and pj's to fit him.  Luckily we don't have too much longer.  Last night I was giving Brayden a bath and he looks down at his expander in his stomach and he says. " Mommy, why is my tummy getting so big? Am I making a baby inside my tummy."  Ha the things that they think of at that age.

Brayden still cried whole time during his fill tonight and even tried to stall a few times saying he had to go potty.  Poor boy, just wanted to be done and go lay down on the couch.  He was happy once we put his car bandaids on and dressed in his pjs. 

Tonight we hit goal on 1 of our expanders! On our left thigh we got 40 cc's in and now at 350 cc's which is our goal.  On the stomach we got 40 cc's and now at 455 cc's and our goal is 500.  On the left back we got 30 cc's and now at 325 and our goal is 500 cc's.  I know the reason why our numbers are so low on the back is because that area has been stretched 4 times already and not sure how much more it can take, so we are taking that expander easy.

His area between the 2 expanders on the scar tissue is still holding up.  Praying that it continues to hold up for the next 3 weeks and we can go to surgery on July 10th as planned.
