Full Steam Ahead





Jack is still doing well. 3 days and counting since his last episode, we're hoping it just keeps on going. Today, they coaxed another poo out of him. He is still all blocked up, possibly due to all that iron (he gets extra in some formula and a special side dish of it as well). He did put on a little weight yesterday. Now up to 6 lbs 4 oz, Grandpa Dennis says he's an Italian eater. The nurse talked to the doctor today and they came up with a plan to re-evaluate his situation on Thursday to see how close he is to making it home. They moved him back into his big boy crib, he was in an infant warmer, because if he had an episode it was easier to work on him. They also took off the oxygen saturation monitor. So, everyone keep their fingers crossed that Jack behaves and can make it home very soon.

9 Weeks Old


I know I just told you he was 2 months yesterday, but today he is 9 weeks. He is also tipping the scales at 6 lbs (hooray!!!). I do apologize right now, but I forgot the new camera so we didn't get very good pics, only 1 to post (with a video). He is still doing very good eating his food, but still no pooping. The doctor didn't seem too concerned with that just yet. They gave him another suppository and hopefully all his system will clean out. Jack was also incident free yesterday. Hopefully, his big episodes of apnea and bradycardia and behind him.

I promise I'll remember the camera tomorrow.
