Aydan is now able to drink out of a bottle!! He took his first bottle yesterday and only drank about 7 cc's, but the nurse said it was probably because he had nursed at the feeding prior, and was probably just really worn out. So today when I visited him, I got to give him another bottle. He drank 40 cc's!!! The doctors were really impressed and said that instead of just one bottle a day, they'd do one bottle per shift (there are 2 shifts per day). When he does well with that, they'll change it to one bottle every other feeding and then eventually a bottle every feed!!! Yay!!!
As of last night, he was up to 4 pounds 13.2 ounces! He's just doing really well overall! :) Hopefully he'll be home in a couple weeks! We'll just have to continue praying!
