First Sub-Q!


Today was Jackson's first sub-q treatment!!  It went pretty well.  Mommy and Daddy both went to learn how to administer sub-q at home.  Mommy is a little worried she can't do the sticking part.  Lucky for Jackson, we got numbing medicine.  He had two sites located on his stomach.  It was hard finding a spot to pinch and inch on him :)  He had a small reaction right after the pump started to flow, but overall it was a breeze.  Only two hours to pump.  We will check his levels in three months and will be praying that they go up.  The site looks like two huge swollen bumps on his tummy.  He is very upset to have a fat tummy :(  Just as we knew he would, he came through like a trooper.
