Still On The Bottle


Good news today. Zac did really well with the bottle last night after we left, taking three more in a row before having to get his food via the tube again, then took a bottle again this morning before taking via the tube at noon. The one at noon was only because the nurse wanted to make sure when we fed him at 3 and 6 today, that he wasn't too worn out from doing the bottle. All this bottle-feeding takes more energy than just having the food given to you in a tube, and they have to be sure he doesn't burn too many calories while they are trying to fatten him up. :)

Today's picture is of Katy feeding him with the bottle. He did some breast-feeding for a little bit, then finished off with the bottle for his 3pm feeding today. We're excited he's taking this step so well and so definitively, and we're also quite proud of him. Way to go, Zac!!!
