Wow, another good day.. Benjamin was bumped up again today on his feeds to 17mls/hour. I'm so thankful that he's tolerating things. He spit up once, but only a small amount. But other then that he seemed good today. He did great with his bottle today. He took 15mls. He only had 1 bigger episode where he choked a bit and his heart rate dropped. So it seems he's getting the hang of it. The plan is to get him bottle feeding 3 or more times a day. If it goes well in the morning tomorrow then we'll try again in the afternoon. Things are definitely looking up. I'm actually starting to think about when he'll come home. We still don't know how long it will be, a lot can happen. Our goal is Christmas...which gives us lots of time. Pray lots...that he can come home soon!!!! Thank you so much to everyone who reads the blog daily..who prays for us often. We draw our strength from your support.

I'm praying that he keeps eating and growing :) My nephews soared through the final couple of weeks, once the feeds started, they just got better by the feeding :) Good things are coming :)
