Sorry I have been busy lately trying to get this eating thing down. I am doing well and gaining weight (was 4 lbs 3 oz yesterday) slowly but still can't seem to get enough energy to take my food by mouth. I don't understand why everyone makes such a big deal of eating by mouth with the tube in my nose I don't have to work at it at all. They doctors think I will get the hang of it soon but just need to grow a bit more so I have the energy to eat. Right now I take about 1/3 of my food my mouth. They did put me back on a nutrition supplement with milk protein and I have not had any bloody stools but Mommy is still on the dairy free diet and boy does she miss cheese.
Please keep your fingers crossed that I get the hang of eating so I can come home soon, I think it is getting hard for Mommy to watch all the babies younger than me (about 35-36 wks) go home and I am still here. The doctors say some babies are just slower and it will just take time.
I still have a heart

It should have read I still have a heart mumur, but the doctors say it is small and will go away on its own and doesn't affect me.
