(Please click on the photo to see more pictures.)For how well Jacob is progressing, today really wasn't much of a reward. First, as we posted yesterday, he's on formula which he doesn't seem to care for much. Second, they removed him from his nice incubator and put him into an open-air crib. And then, the icing on the cake, or rather sliced off the cake, he got circumcised this morning. The procedure went well, and he seems to be doing OK.
He gained a few more grams, and his eating has started to go up in volume. Unfortunately, he seems to pig out the feeding before we get there, and we get left feeling incompetent as he eats less than he normally would. We were reassured that we aren't doing anything wrong, and maybe they won't let him eat as much as he wants going forward, but rather limit him a bit.

Hang in there!
My 33 1/2 week preemie will be 10 years old next week. She had some issues with breastfeeding & jaundice - was on formula for a week. I nursed her until she was - 15 months old.
