New update!

Hello everyone. We went to see Dr. Einhorn again today and Logan gained a good amount of weight. He now weighs 8 lbs., 14 oz. and is 19 inches long, according to the nurse. However, we measured him at 20 inches at home. I'm not sure who's right!

The dr. was very happy with his weight gain and everything else as well. Logan is taking about 3 ounces of breastmilk per feeding and eating about every 4 hours. At night he gets up once, and then is up again around 5. We are getting a little more sleep, thank goodness! He is still taking his medications and on the oxygen. I think he will be on both of these for awhile. He said to keep taking Logan off of the oxygen when he is awake. Dr. Einhorn also said that Logan's 4 month vaccinations are coming up in a couple of weeks and that all of us that are close to Logan should get flu shots. We were already going to get them. In fact, Danny already got his.

Logan also gets to try rice cereal in a couple of weeks! Not much at a time, just a little to get him introduced to it. Especially to get some oral motor stimulation going.

Jill,

Glad to hear that everything is going well with Logan. I am so happy that he is finally home, where he belongs. He looks so cute in all his pictures, I can't believe how big he is getting.
Lots of love,
