The Fam!

Hey guys! It's been a while since the last time we have posted, so i thought i owed an update. Memphis has been doing well these days. He has been gaining weight every time that we go to the doctor. He is right on path of where he should be, perhaps even a little better than we expected. They have modified some of his feedings, and taken away part of the micro lipids. This is great for him. The more natural his feedings become, hopefully the less reflux he will have. Speaking of reflux, that is or major problem as of now. He is still having reflux issues everyday. Most of them aren't severe, but every once in a while they seem to be severe. Mostly he only brings up one or two cc, but on the rare occasion he will bring up enough to choke himself, or make a mess. The oral feedings are still going slowly, but i feel like he is getting better. We have a feeding clinic to go to on Monday. We shall see how that goes. We are dreading the changes they may want to make, but he needs to eat by mouth. Oh the changes. Physically he seems to be advancing. He is able to turn himself over to his belly now, and he isn't hating that as much here recently. Even sometimes preferring it while his asleep. The only issue with that is his ability to flip himself back on his back. He scoots around the floor on his back now. It's great! Grabbing for toys is no issue now. He picks them up just fine, and they go straight o the mouth. He also isn't choking himself with his toys and fingers as much. So much improvement. The rest of the family is doing well. Braden is being crazy as usual. Being a little boy. Rowan is doing well in swim, and school. She brought in a straight A progress report! Not much news other than this though. We will do our best to keep it updated.
