Jack: The other white meat (if you can find it)
Jack has decided to toy with our emotions. as of Sunday he was 10 grams away from 3 pounds. Sunday night he stayed the same, and Monday night he lost 1o grams. Lost!!! This from a boy who in the previous nights has gained 20, 30, or even 40 grams. So yep. Toying with Mom's emotions, the cad. They upped his food though, to 25ccs, so there's still hope yet! He's doing well with the breastfeeding. Today he got a couple five minute bursts and then decided that he was bored of it. Still though, he's doing well, especially considering he's still so little, and they tell us even term babies sometimes have issues with learning to breastfeed.
We have new pictures to post!! Hopefully tonight, perhaps tomorrow, of Jack in clothes! That's right, Mr. Tarzan has donned some jammies. It was only temporary, and he's back to being born free in his diaper now, but it was still ultra cute. It's strange how he looks more like a "normal" baby in them, because you don't see all the wires and such.
Jack is safe! Apparently the ever vigilant nurses got wind of Happy Buddha Baby's plot to devour Jack and his cohorts, and moved him down to another department. Last I heard they confiscated his stash of dipping sauces and sent him on his way!
In serious news, there's a new family in the nicu, a set of twins. We won't go into specifics here, of course, but they are in need of prayers, so please, join us in adding the M. family to your prayers this evening, this week... as much as you can. Thank you!
