Sam has done a great job on his bottle feedings. In fact, sometimes he over works himself sucking a little to hard and we have to slow him down. He has his feeding tube out!! His little face is precious. Sam's feedings are going to be increased 1cc every 12 hours with his max being 33ccs. Right now he is at 26ccs. They are gradually weaning him off the isolette. The isolette is the "box bed" he is currently in, which is heated to help him keep his temperature up. He is beginning to regulate his temperature better, so they are turning down the heat in the bed a little at a time. I'm thinking that this is a step closer to getting an open bed (without a top and doors). It was another eventful day for Sam. He had all bottle feedings and the eye doctor visited to check his eyes. He does not like that doctor. The nurses said he threw a little fit. Even with all of the things that happened today, Sam gained weight again. He now weighs 3lbs 9.7oz!!
