Yeah is on the "floor", that is a regular hospital room #3076. Julie now has to stay with him 24/7. No more expensive nighttime babysitters!!
The swallow test went well. No surprise since he is starving and sucks very hard on his binkie. No bottle until tomorrow though. The next step, which has already been done is to change the NJ tube to NG tube (just pull some of it out so that it ends in his stomach, not intestines) They have also mixed the breast milk he is getting with a high concentrate formula to give him extra nutrition. He still gets some IV food as well, but that should be weaned off very soon.
He also had an echo. It looked good.
We are all very pleased at how he is doing. He is such a cute little guy. He won the hearts of those doing the swallow test.
