He's hungry...
He's really hungry!
Couldn't wait for the bottle...
After feeding time...Notice anything about his face? 
Jacob's tiny toes!Could you believe that Jacob could possibly be coming home in 2 weeks? Yes, 2 weeks! Jacob is growing and making so much progress. He is bottle feeding for every feeding. The doctor ordered for him to eat as much as he wants now! He's going to be a lil chunky monkey pretty soon. According to the doctor, his last official A and B was on the 7th. With that, he decided to not prescribe caffeine, reglan, and pepcid. Jacob is only on vitamins now. He'll be closely monitored to make sure he's doing okay with all of the adjustments. Things are looking good for the little guy...he just need to work on the A and B stuff. When the nurses told me a couple of weeks ago that he'll outgrow the A's and B's, I honestly did not understand what that meant. Now I do! Before, he use to have over 10 a day. Now, he has about 0-2 a day. That's a big difference! He's definitely outgrowing them! It just seems like he's making these big leaps and bounds all at once...it's so awesome!
WEIGHT: 3 lbs. 15.3 oz
