In honor of the holiday, Lewis put on some weight overnight. He was up 200 grams or so when they weighed him. Then he lost some of that weight - he pooped this morning, first time since his surgery (great news - that means that everything is working down there). Other than that, Lewis had a pretty relaxed holiday. Jenn got in some good cuddle time this afternoon, and the nurses have been keeping him calm with "sweet-eez", (basically sugar water on a pacifier). Feedings are still going well, but just a tiny bit at a time - up to 4 ml/h now.
We're thankful for a lot of things today. Particularly for the great care that Lewis is receiving from the NICU staff and for the wonderful support from all our friends and family. Thank you, we hope you're having a wonderful Thanksgiving.
