Gaining Weight




Duncan weighs 2lbs. 8oz. He is at 6cc's on the feeding, but that changes each day at 5am and 5pm. At each time he goes up 1cc on the food. So at 5am he will be getting 7cc's of milk. He is doing really good and the nurses are just letting him tell them what he likes and wants. He loves his fingers and finds comfort in sucking on them. They did have to turn on his light again due to the fact that he hasn't pooped since Sunday. They said that was common and he is peeing a normal amount and it wasn't to worry about. They might give him something to help along, but the nurse said they don't want him to depend on that to go.
