We visited with him for a bit then proceeded on to our "Baby Safe" class across the street. We learned about all sorts of things from infant CPR to how to baby proof your house to how to stop an infant from choking. Highly recommended.
After we were done, we returned to his bedside and Sandy got to administer her first bottle feeding to Carter. He did really well and took about 40% of his total feed via bottle; the rest through his normal tube in his nose. Yes, that is what we now call "normal".
After his feed, Sandy sat him up and asked Carter, "What are you making that face for?" And with a grunting look on his face, Carter answered with a thunderous roar from his diaper! If our nurse was drinking anything at the time, she would have spit it all over the wall because she was laughing so hard.
Other than the aforementioned events, there were no real changes. His head remains an issue - although we are told by EVERYONE we speak to that it is ok and will resolve itself. We're just praying that they're right. His weight also remained the same: 1900 grams (4lbs 3oz).
Please keep our beautiful baby in your prayers. He is a blessing to us all.
Until tomorrow...
Nick & Sandy
