So, what happened today?

Andy’s eyes are stable. Is right eye is looking really good, and his left is still somewhat questionable in the amount of sight he will have. The ophthalmology surgeon will see us one more time, in a month, and then wants to start handing us off to the ophthalmologist. He did mention that we might start patching Andy’s right eye so he can work-out his left eye and get it stronger.

Andy is on formula now. He is taking NeoSure, which is from the makers of Similac and is specifically made for preemies. While the regular formula is mixed at 22 calories, we have to add more to get it up to 24 calories. Apparently, it makes a difference in his weight gain. He is gaining over the .5 ounces a day they want, so I will continue with that course of feeding. Up until this point, we have used about 2.5 cans of formula to augment the breast milk these past three months, not we will be going through that a week, if we are lucky.

Yes, the diapers have started to smell more.
