We just found out how much this kid eats, and now it's no wonder he is 6 lbs. 3.6 oz.! I guess 50 ml of formula, 8 times a day will do that to you. He was down to 2 LPM today and is doing well. They will start him on 2-3 bottle feedings a day, once he is down to 1.5 LPM. To illustrate the amount of oxygen he is getting now, compared to what he was on about a month ago: when he was put on the high flow cannula, he was on 10 LPM. 2 LPM is standard for an ambulance ride. He can be sent home on 1 LPM.

| First time in the swing! What a big boy!!!!! |
Needless to say, we are pretty freakin excited. For some reason, he is having trouble pooping, so he is on 3 doses of miralax a day. Things are getting more and more hunky dory every day :-)
