Today has been a good day. Ryan slept much better last night. So did we. He has had a lot of awake/alert time today which has been fun. He has seemed interested in everything. He has eaten better today than the past couple of days. He really gets excited about eating, and he usually eats well for the first 2/3 of the bottle. The last 1/3 usually requires a little more persistence to get him to eat. He lets us know when he won't eat anymore...the tongue comes thrusting out against the bottle. It was recommended to us that to maintain/increase his weight he needs to eat 40-45 ml every 3 hours. He has been eating 35-50, so I'd say everything is fine. We have a chart (somewhere) explaining how much is needed per pound he weighs. Someday I'll find that...maybe. Tomorrow he goes to the pediatrician. You might say a little prayer for us. I haven't met the doctor, and I'm hoping he is the "perfect" one for us. Unfortunately I'm already disgusted enough with the receptionist that if the doctor isn't an "A+" I already have another doctor in mind that I will be calling and pleading with to let us come see her.
