The feedings went up again today to 29cc every hour.  Memphis did ok with this.  He has gagged many times and thrown up a couple of times.   Because of his reaction to the 29cc they will not go up anymore for now. The nurse practitioner today said that he should be taking about 32cc every hour.  Even though they have been going up on the feeds Memphis is still loosing weight.  He has almost lost a pound this week.  Tomorrow they may decide to add calories to Memphis' milk since he isn't  tolerating going up in volume.  To do this they will supplement the breast milk with a little bit of formula.

The oxygen pressure/flow has been weaned from 1 to 3/4 liter.  Memphis is doing great with this wean.  His saturation number has been staying at 100!

Memphis is still working hard on digestion and tolerating milk in his stomach,  Breathing with ease, having a good blood pressure, sucking, and having good muscle movement with his neck, arms, and legs.

So much work for a little man.
