Gained!

Today we went back to the GI specialist and were given good news, Luke gained 8 ounces in 12 days. He now weighs 17 lbs, 14 oz. , yay! The doctor was really happy with his gain and that he is so eager to eat. We did have a little set back this weekend with the eating/constipation but I think that he's back on track now. The plan now is to continue meeting with the speech therapist weekly to help with the feeding and we're meeting with an OT next week to see if any of his feeding concerns are due to sensory issues (ie, doesn't like different textures or the way things feel in his mouth). I'm hesitant to say that things are turning up, just because every time I do something seems to set us back a bit but...things are turning up!!
