No we didn't bump into Tara Reid or have a wardrobe malfunction. We spent the weekend with Jackson teaching him how to feed from the bottle and slipping that Gerber nipple in his mouth. We had a wonderful nurse this weekend who gave us great tips on how to watch Jackson's cues to ensure he has a good feed. Jackson is learning how to pace himself and coordinate breathing while feeding. We watch to make sure his breathing is consistent and he isn't working too hard. It's also important to look at his color, another indicator that he may brady if he gets pale. He is not consistent yet on the amount of formula he takes at one sitting which can vary from a few ccs to a whole bottle. Yet another small step closer to home at 4 lbs. 14 ozs.
