I went to have Ian weighed today and he gained almost 3 ounces in the past 2 days! YEAH! It seems as though he has turned a corner. His bilirubin is down and he is a bit more alert, so feeding him is not such an arduous task. He's eating more at each feeding and has started eating every 2 hours instead of every 3. That has been great...except at night. It takes an hour to pump and feed him, I sleep an hour, and then we start all over again. Nonetheless, this is a season and I am hoping we'll be moving toward nursing in the near future!

Yippee! Way to go, Ian! We're so proud of you, and Barb - whew! you are doing a great job of selfless service. Do you have any help during the day? Bless your heart! Love you, Megan
Glad that Ian's doing better! I'm sure you're exhausted...hang in there!
