Hello everybody! Jack’s continuing to do very well. Last night he slept very well, thus we slept well too. Only a few times did Jack wake up crying, but it didn’t take much to get him to go back to sleep. Not a single alarm went off either. That’s because when the monitor man brought the new monitor (because the memory was full from all the false alarms) , he also showed us how to use the belt instead of the sticky leads. They just were not cutting it. Now the belt holds the leads in place and they have a harder time falling off. It also makes it much simpler to remove the monitor for the occasional bath.

The visiting nurse came by today as well. She gave Jack a checkup and everything was just fine. In fact, she said Jack is doing very well. He was put on a sat monitor and that showed that Jack was at 100%. We also changed his feeding tube while she was here. We still strongly dislike doing this and Jack doesn’t really have a different opinion about it, but the nurse gave us a few pointers that help. We are getting all sorts of helpful hints from so many people, that we are becoming the experts.

He was also weighed and is 6lbs 2oz. We think the pediatrician’s scale was a bit wacky on Thursday.

Jack got another bath today. He still doesn’t really know how to feel about it but he is beginning to not be so shocked when his little butt hits the water. He’s starting to let himself enjoy it. One thing he defiantly likes to do in the tub is peeing.
