We tried nursing again this morning and this evening. Brady did a little better both times. He is still so tiny...he just needs practice and to gain more strength. The nurse also had me try giving him a bottle this evening. He wasn't too thrilled with having to suck, swallow, and breathe that quickly...it was kind of scary for me too.
Dave and I have been a bit concerned the past couple days because Brady has been losing weight. We spoke with the nurse practitioner about it. Again, she said it was normal due to the diuretic he is receiving, but I am still worried. I am going to speak with the doctor tomorrow. Brady weighed 3 lbs. 1 oz. today.
We are grateful to all of you for your continued prayers.
