Whoop de doo

Bennett gained 2 WHOPPING ounces in the last week (**insert sarcasm**). I'm really disappointed, as I thought we'd be seeing at least a 1/2 lb gain this week. Bennett has been doing SO much better with eating - downing about 25 ounces a day!!!! That is tremendously better than the 15 ounces a day he was doing. I really thought we'd see some good weight gain. He was 12 lbs 4 oz today (Ace told me the wrong weight from the last appt last Tues, he was 12 lbs 2 oz then). Its great he's eating more for so many reasons, but geez kid! At this rate, he'll only gain 1/2 a pound a MONTH!! The Ped. said lets give it some time and see how he does.

We go to the Pulmonologist on Thursday.

I am thrilled that Bennett is not fighting the bottle... and that joy is outweighing the actual numbers right now. I can't help it! Aw he's going to keep up the good work, I just know it!

We will take any improvement and he is improving! Eat Bennett, eat!
