The news is still good. He lost 5g yesterday, so that's not great, but it's a lot less than the day before and he's eating more today. I think this weight loss nonsense is going to end and he'll be back to packing on the grams.
He's operating under the threat of a returned tube if he doesn't meet some fairly aggressive intake minimums, but so far he's hitting his targets. It helps that no one in the NICU wants to see that tube come back, so everyone is working extra hard to get the milk into him. He's eating so much better since the tube came out.
Yesterday was his due date, so he's 8 weeks old today. Dennis and I have both noticed how much more vocal he is the past few days. He's got all kinds of new noises that he can't wait to share. I need to get more video.
