Food, Glorious Food!
Ian is getting the hang of food - at last! He is expected to take about 35 cc's of food per feeding (every 3 hours) and he's managing about 15 - 20 cc's now each time on his own. He tends to suck a few gulps down then breathe frantically through his nose! But slowly he's getting the hang of it! He weighed in at 4lb's 1oz tonight and he also passed his second eyesight test after an initial eye test indicated a possible problem. Way to go, Ian!
