As for Jax, he's up to 4lbs. 5oz. He is now in the area of the NICU known as "south." We were a little reluctant to get too excited about his move, but realized quickly that it's just fine and maybe even better. Jenny even got a little bummed when a nurse told her that he might get moved back for Christmas due to short staffing.
He had went two days without an alarm, then decided to have two Brady's today. They keep feeding him more and Jenny has been nursing him for about a week, so he's getting plenty to eat. The nurse today thought that his Brady's were probably the result of him refluxing a little and holding his breath to try to keep it down. He's an all-star nurser and every nurse has commented that he acts a week or two older than his age in this area.
He's two ounces away from being taken off of supplemental breast milk and going strictly to nursing and formula. Jenny's been having some issues with her milk coming in, so say a prayer for her. We want her to turn into a dairy, so he doesn't have to go home on any supplements.
Mom and Dad are getting some cabin fever and are a little home sick. We can't wait to be back in the Joe with Jackson and sleeping under our own roof. Jenny has spent about an hour and a half in our house since Nov. 20 and I've only been home a few times to pick up clothes. Jen is planning on going back to work for a few days next week and could use some prayers there too. I managed to get caught up on homework, and after a short paper to turn in Thursday and a final on Friday, I'll be done for the semester.
