Quick Update on going home status

I spoke with the doctor yesterday about when Morgan will be going home. She is pleased with everything except maybe how much volume he is taking at each feeding. He was taking around 55-60 ml (2 ounces) but she would like to see him taking 65-70 ml because of his size. He weighed in yesterday at 7 pounds 10 ounces! Unfortunately the swallow study on Monday showed that he still needs the honey thickened feeds with a cross cut nipple which is the hardest combination to drink. Morgan did very well yesterday when I fed him, he sucked down 75 ml in no time so I am hoping he continues to do that. As long as he continues to eat well he should be going home tomorrow or Friday possibly Saturday or Sunday, but either way he will be going home soon!!!
