Today, Brody is up to his birth weight! We are so proud of how our little guy is growing. He is now up to 7 mL per feeding. Mom can't believe all that food can fit in his tiny tummy, but it is going in. They stopped his insulin for now because his blood sugar readings have been good. They stopped the lipids because his triglycerides were a little high. So, right now the only thing going in is the nutrient drip and the milk!
Daddy went back to work today, so Mom is at the hospital with Brody. We haven't been able to hold him yet, but we hope that will come very soon.
Hi Russ!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new baby boy! I hope he continues to get stronger each day. I'm glad you're doing a blog for everyone to follow along with his progress.

Let us know how we can help Jenny and don't forget to take care of yourself too!
ReplyDeleteMatthew blew little Brody a kiss when I showed him the blog pictures and he wants to teach Brody how to go down the sliding board :)
