Things went really well yesterday - I think he will eventually get the hang of nursing. Hopefully once his respirations are consistently (which could take days to weeks yet, I think) normal, then he might get to nurse for real! We have been warned that he may still very likely go home on the tube feeds, but we are fine with that. I don't remember if I mentioned that his versed drip has been weaned down some. He is still getting his morphine every four hours and I don't know when that will be weaned again. Maybe when he stops the spitting up, which didn't happen for the 8 AM feeding or the 11 AM feeding. There isn't a lot more to tell!! The Wittmers are up here today and enjoying the new and improved Gabe - he still had four chest tubes, two peripheral IVs and was on the vent when they were here last. AND they are enjoying the chance to hold him. I'll get those pictures posted this afternoon - we are still taking some as I type this.
