Friday, June 22 -- ~3 bottles

Today's updates:

-- Alex 'nippled' one full bottle and 2 more bottles to about 80% completion. This is a new record for him. He definitely seemed tired out after all the work and after his high energy yesterday. But, he still advanced on the suckling front.



-- He definitely gets to a point where he has a look on his face that says "Thanks for the enormous amount of milk, but I am really full." He gets the milk anyway. The doctors keep him on a 57 ml of milk every 3 hours cycle one way or another. So, if he does not finish a bottle, the rest goes into his feeding tube.

-- He slept much of the day. He hung out with Mom and Dad in the morning and evening. Lara from Starbucks also visited him.

-- Tomorrow is another big day, he is going to get a full bath.



-- Here is a video of Joanna and Alex from yesterday. This is a longer video. We keep the lights pretty dim in the nursery so the video is a little dark.





-- More video, Alex having a meal through the feeding tube:
