Slowly, slowly...

They've taken Jack off of the MCT oil (that which Matt calls the fried chicken) and replaced his 26 calorie milk with 22 calorie. This pretty much means that he's doing well enough on the weight gain end of it that they're not really worried about that anymore. We're still working on getting him to nurse, but, as is the preemie way, we're getting inconsistent results. Soon though, it'll prolly snap into place, and he'll be doing it all the time, as if he were born nursing. At least, that's what the nurses tell us!

Sonnet's working on accumulating a "rogue's gallery" of the nurses, so that you, dear readers, can see who is taking such amazing care of our Jack in the box:) (Well, recently in the box, at any rate). That will come soon, with any luck.


All in all, no great changes, Jack's just plugging along, growing, and working so that he's able to come home to his Mom and Dad. Keep the prayers coming, please!
