Mon. Oct. 8th

Luke's latest weekly statistics:
17.72" Long
5lbs 9oz

No real changes for Luke today. He is still having desat (low oxygen saturation) spells, but they think as he gets bigger they will go away. He just needs more growth, which he's taking his time with. We're going to keep on with the same food for him (breast milk with added nutrition) for now. They did add a little iron recently since he is still anemic.

He had an eye exam today. He'll have another follow-up next week to make certain everything is okay.

Overall he looks good and he had some great awake time yesterday with some good nursing and he ate pretty well this a.m from the bottle with his daddy. He was pretty tired today having the eye exam.
