WAY TO GROW BOYS !!!!!
Jackson weighs 6lbs 8 oz
Connor weighs 6 lbs


Connor is back on his feedings and is getting better at it each day.Mommy and Daddy are persisting with encouraging him to keep learning to suck, swallow, and breath.

Jackson had Upper GI Contrast study and it has shown a blockage in his small bowel. He is going to have surgery in the next week or so to to correct it. The Dr. that did his previous surgery is away on holidays so we need to wait for that Dr. to be back. After the surgery it is another 10 day wait to try him on feedings again. One common saying in the NICU is one step forward two steps back. Poor little Jackson seems to be following this trend. Once his surgery is complete and he is able to tolerate feedings he will likely move quickly from tube feedings to bottle feeding since he already has the suck, breath thing down pat and will just need to learn to swallow. Jackson loves his soother :o)

Mommy, Daddy, Connor and Jackson could really use some prayers for a speedy recovery for little Jackson after this surgery. I will update more when we have a firm date for his surgery. :o)
