Today was a big day. Benjamin had developmental follow-up clinic at St. Joes. It was nice to see some familiar faces again. We even popped into the Nicu and said hi to a few nurses. Benjamin is doing pretty good with his development. He scored just above the 25th percentile, so everyone was fairly happy with that. We got some good instruction from the physiotherapist to help Benjamin with muscle tone. He has overcompensated in his upper body because his abdomen has been cut open so many times. So we have to work on getting him to relax his shoulders a bit and do some tummy time. Because he has such a large buldge from his operations he tends to teeter while on his tummy, so we got some good tips to help him with that. We go back in a month, so we have lots of work to do before then. We also saw the dietician and she was very happy with Benjamin's progress. She was happy for me to stop bottle feeding and start breastfeeding full time. So by the weekend I think he'll be straight breastfed..what an answered prayer. To be born a micro-preemie and to nurse in the first place is amazing...but for him to have been so sick and come through what he has and then to still be able to effectively nurse is phenomenal. I am so thankful!!!! Life just couldn't be any better.
