1-12-2009 Zachary Update

He had a mostly ok day. He did brady a few times some pretty bad but for what I'd consider a kind of good reason eating too much while nursing rofl. He sometimes wouldn't burp easily so the air would impede him breathing that's when it'd happen. We'd eventually get him to burp then he was fine.

He did lose 10 g today so he's 5lbs 3ounces that's after gaining 45g yesterday. He was at his highest at 5lbs 6oz this week so he's working on getting back to that. The transition to nursing 3x today he was bound to lose a bit. I was hoping he wouldn't have but they will probably put him back to only 2 feedings tomorrow I figure. It's a lot of work for him to nurse that's what they're worried about with him by doing too much work to feed he expends more energy than gains from the food. He ate a lot more than he normally gets fed and overate a few times to the point he spit up rofl. He's a little piggy hehe, but in a good way. So it's slow and steady we may have to cut back on the nursings so he can get back to non-brady stable then slowly add them back in. Takes a lot out of him when he brady's so hopefully that will lessen tomorrow.

He overall though seemed well today despite his issues during feeding.
