The pulmonary attending doctor just stopped by and she's seen this before. Babies have a very delicate reflex when having tubes stuck down their throats. The tubes occasionally cause the airway to constrict. The constriction is more severe when babies are sedated (which Tess was) and it's even more severe when babies have a virus (which they're testing for now).
A virus wouldn't necessarily keep us here in the hospital.
And the airway constriction stuff is preventable for next time now that they know Tess is susceptible to it.
Our tolerance for staying in the hospital is low and we're already sick of it.
Playing with a toy instead of all the cables and tubes!
