An Update

I just wanted to give an update on our little guy.
He is two months old now, and still super teeny. He is wearing newborn clothes and barely had made it into size 1 diapers.

We went for his 2 mo appointment this week at the pediatrician, where he got five vaccines. He's been super grumpy from those now, but other than that he's looking fine.

He weighs 8 lb 10 oz and is 21 inches long, making him 1% in both weight and height. He's so little!

Since he passed the swallow study we've been trying to get him to breastfeed (mom's been pumping since he was born) and he is doing great! Its really hard to teach a child to give up the bottle, so he's pretty amazing.

He is not sleeping very much and his acid reflux is getting worse.

He has one more appointment with the occupational therapist, but other than that he is done!

So pretty much, he's just a normal little baby now, just with a battery pack generator. :)
