Here is a link to a photo album of Henry and the hospital stay. There are a total of about 100. Click here to check them out!
Henry is doing great. We had a Dr. visit last Friday and he is up to 5.3 pounds. They want him to gain a half ounce a day and he seems to be doing well. Henry likes to stay up from about 3 a.m. to 6 or 7 and sometimes 8. He insists on a pacifier but he can't keep it in his mouth so I spend a lot of the night putting the paci back in his mouth. The nurses got him stuck on the paci because when they would tube feed him through his nose, they would give him the paci so he would maybe associate sucking with getting full. Hopefully in the next few weeks he can keep it in his mouth.
We are doing well too, adjusting and finally getting the hang of all this parenting stuff. I usually stay in bed anywhere from 11:30-1:30 and just feed him and nap with him. Then I clean up a little and feed him and shower and feed him and that is about it. oh and feed him. I feed him so much that I can not believe he is not at least 10 pounds by now. I must say that his face is really filling out now, he looks very different from day one.
