2 steps forward...1 step back

Mikayla was supposed to come home today, but of course, that didn't happen. The doctor that is taking care of her is overwhelmed (or so it seems) by the 20 babies that are in the special nursery; including Mikayla so instead of reading all of the notes left by the nurses that took care of her yesterday he only read part of them and decided based on partial information not to discharge her. He passed the message through a nurse which meant I recieved very hurried and limited information so for now I don't know when our little girl is coming home. We're very frustrated because she's been in the special care nursery for over a month now and we've been getting good reports, but for some reason she has to stay?! It doesnt make sense to me. Honestly I feel like the Dr didnt want to waste time on a discharge today because there are so many new infants in the nursery and he's too busy.
