Jack is off his oxygen!! He was doing really good when we were there this afternoon. From the bottle he took 34ml out of the 38ml he gets with each feeding! Pretty soon he will be taking it all and he will get to start taking more bottles. Right now he only gets 2 bottles a day but if he keeps eating well then he will get a bottle added as he tolerates it. Luke is great. Ken got to hold him twice this weekend--one time with Jack and Luke together! It is an odd sensation to be able to carry Jack and walk around with him not attached to something! I felt like I was breaking the rules when I carried him over to see brother!! Luke is up to 5mls of feeding and the doctors are weaning his vent settings. They have said that if Luke keeps progressing and doesn't have anymore set backs then they may be able to get him off the vent in a couple weeks!! Jack hit the 4lb mark last night weighing in at 4lbs 3oz! He is growing fast.
Off to bed...........tomorrow is a busy day of cleaning, shopping, and seeing the boys!
