Well. This is the surprise. Brody had his first bottle yesterday. He did so well, yay!!!!!!!!! He had 26cc (30cc is an ounce). Then this morning he had 37cc at 11am and 33cc at 1pm. He then did 2 feedings by the NG tube and will do his 11pm and 1am feedings by bottle. Basically feedings alternate 2 bottles and 2 NGs. He is doing really well with eating. Unfortunately he is still not doing well with his reflux. It is really bad and he is so good. Most babies are so fussy because they are uncomfortable but he isn't. He is an angel. The reflux makes his breathing unstable still. Prayerfully it will be better soon.
Baby Waylon is doing well. Mom, Michelle, is healing well too. She was walking well today and was so happy because she got to take a shower. Such a blessing when you have been on bed rest for over a week.
