The doctor decided to try a few new things with Nick to see how he would do with the bottle feeding. They changed him to eating every 4 hours. They are hoping he will wake more hungry and be more interested in taking his bottle. They also are offering him a bottle at every other feed. They will do the tube on the other feeds to give him a rest between taking the bottle. This worked well for a while. He took all his bottles yesterday and last night. Today, he was not all that interested. He is showing positive steps forward. It will just take him a bit because his lungs were so sick. The doctor feels that he just may need a little more time to get this whole bottle thing down.
Everything else is going really well. Still getting big. He seems to have gotten a little bit of a reputation for his chubby cheeks. Nick is now weighing 7lbs 13 oz. He will be 8lbs before I know it.
Here are a few new pictures... Enjoy!
always with the face...
