The thickening

The formula/rice cereal mix they are using for Lilah is doing wonders! However it takes a lot of her energy to get the mix out of the bottle so she is not able to finish the whole feed by mouth. Yesterday they tried to thin out the mix a bit to see if that would help but the reflux crept back up. Today they have decided to try a different type of nipple to help her out. It sounds like the total volume she is taking by mouth may go in a positive direction by the end of the day.

Dave and I have attended a Reflux class so we are prepared to help her when she comes home.

When I arrived this morning she was wide awake and happy. It was great! I can't wait to get her home.

Alec is doing great at home. The dogs have transitioned well and will often be by his crib at the first cry, then come find me seconds later to make sure I've heard the cries. It's pretty cute!

Glad to know there's a reflux class :-) She will join her brother at home soon!
