Staying in NICU

Loki will have to stay in the NICU unit for at least 48 hours. He is breathing very rapidly and his chest x-ray shows either excess amniotic fluid or a possible pnemonia. He is being treated with antibiotics and is under an oxygen hood. I am unable to nurse hIm until his breathing returns to normal. I have only held him for two minutes of his life. I am separated from my daughter and my son.
