Today was a good day. Jacob was really tired and slept for most of the day. After I changed his diaper and Jeremiah took his temperature, he was really upset. He cried and then used both of his hands to cover his face for comfort. We thought it was the cutest thing ever!
Jacob's milk intake is now 16 mL. He continues to poop on his own. He now weighs 2 lbs. 8.5 oz. We're glad he's putting on the weight as it will help him regulate his own temperature when he graduates from the isolette. It will take some time before that happens, but we're happy to know that his stomach is able to break down the milk and get him ready for other things. He continues to get a dose of caffeine for his apnea and bradycardia spells. Everytime we hear the sound alarm on the machine, we get really nervous. It's gotten a lot better, but we hope he grows out of it soon.
