did your baby have a "pic" line?

Ava did not need a PICC. She had several IVs though. I had a PICC and to be honest with you, had they suggested a PICC for AVA, I doubt I would have permitted it.
They do PICCs when IVs are frequently needed. They do get infected...I know many that it has happened to. I am sure though that they are keeping a close eye on Ethan.

Caitlyn had a pic line for the majority of her stay in the NICU. They took it out when she went up to the transitional nursery before going home. One of the hardest things I watched there was watching them put one in her head. Her poor skin was so bruised and thin at the time, it was the best place for it.
