So I think Eli wore himself out with all the crying and eating yesterday. Today all he has wanted to do is sleep. So it's been a much less "active" day for me and his nurse. I had to totally wake him up to eat a little bit ago and he had been asleep for 4 hours! He wasn't happy that I woke him up but he ate and is now back to sleep again. I think he really likes his new "big boy bed". He looks very cozy all wrapped up in blankets. I took some pictures so I will try to have Ryan post them when I get home tonight. He continues to eat well, just less voraciously today than the past two days. But hopefully by tomorrow things will even out. And I am hoping on the floor they will be on a more rigid schedule with his cares and feeding. I know I will be when I get home, so I am excited to get some more consistency with that.
Also, his doctor feels like he is doing really well, and he will probably be on the floor tomorrow. I heard the nurses trying to talk him into transferring Eli today, but he thought one more day would be good. The funny thing is we ended up moving rooms again this morning. For the past few days we have been sharing a nurse with other kids. Well, the kid we were sharing with yesterday and this morning actually got sicker and sicker so his nurse today felt he needed 1 to 1 care again. So Eli got moved to another room with another little baby. So that was fun, considering that we will probably move again tomorrow! But the mom of the other baby is nice, we are kind of on the same pump schedule and she's always waiting outside the room when I get done so we have met each other and spoken. So now we can better plan our times so we are not wasting time waiting for the other person to be done.
So that's about all I have for my update today! I guess quiet days are good.
Always so thrilled to hear his progress. So happy for you guys!
