Little to report tonight. Will continues to do well, weighing in at 5lbs, 3oz. His preemie clothes are starting to fit snug.
He has managed to maintain constant body temps and remains in the open crib. The isolette has been removed altogether from the cubicle. We are also using a bottle to supplement his feeds. He receives 40cc's of breast milk every 3 hours and is bottle fed on cue. When cues are not present, he is fed through a syringe pump. The pump time was reduced this past weekend from 45 minutes to 30.
Although his growth is slow, it is steady. Each day he becomes more alert and is beginning to respond to our voices and his surroundings.
