mesh,
good morning...hope i can explain to you wat is mrsa infection...its an infection which they discover when they take samples from the nose..they hv to isolate the babies so that they dun spread it..its harmless(if i m not wrong)..even doctors and nurses will get it and are tested for it..even normal adults can get it..we can get cured by walking under the sun...for the preemies,.they are administered wif nasal cream which will help them to cure it but they need to isolate them and even after they are ok, they wldnt put the babies back wif the others just in case.....
it cld be due to too much handling of the babies for the different procedures like IV drips, blood tranfusions etc which caused this...
in my opinion, its nothg to worry about altho i noe as a parent, you are vy worried....
when my son was moved to mrsa isolation, i was vy worried but one of the nurses told me that upon discharge, i wld be happy as the level of service here is more personalised...less babies to one nurse.....its true, upon discharge, i actually appreciate this place...
as for nec, i think it stands for some necro..etc..maybe you can research it by looking at preemies' bb websites..
eh, i better dun talk too much...if not,later, i become branded a ms "know it all"
lindah,
oic, yr sisters' kids in the same school..no wonder they went..
bbs usually vy sleepy....but still must feed him leh...no matter wat....must wake him up to drink..that was wat i was told as i read smwhere or smone told me that preemies digestive system not so developed and they wldnt cry when they are hungry until later..
its true, my son was tube fed and if i din feed him every three hrly, he also wun cry...
