Quick update. After really good initial strides feeding, Thomas has become less and less interested in taking the bottle over the past few days. He's only taken a portion of the milk each time, if at all. Fortunately, they do not choose to wait him out. If he doesn't want to eat, they give it to him through the feeding tube. We're not sure what's going on. He seems to want to eat, but the act of eating is either making him tired or uncomfortable. Possibly from being on ventilation for so long. The doctor and the occupational therapist are putting their heads together to figure out what is going on. I'll let you know.
They've scheduled his hernia surgery for Tuesday.
That's all for now.

Thomas,
ReplyDeleteNana and Papa think you should eat out of your bottle instead of the tube. We think your stomach will feel much better.
