A brief update before bed...

A few pertinent notes...

Dylan's weight is up to 2010g or 4 lbs 7 oz. He is eating 37cc of breastmilk with each feeding.

Also, he can suck on a pacifier pretty darn well. We popped a binky in his mouth during his feeding last night, and he sucked away at it like a champ!

That's very encouraging news, as preemies don't always learn to suck very easily, and this is a sign that bottle or breast feeding will soon be an option.

The doc wants to try him on a bottle this week. We'll let you all know how that goes as soon as it happens.

Anyway, that's all I have time for right now... More tomorrow, maybe!

Hey Dan!

His weight is really going up, he'll be level 20 before you know it :)
