June 4 Update
We’ve had a break from doctor/therapy appointments and that’s been really really nice, but we’ve got two this next week and two next week.
Not a whole lot of new to report on Matt this week. He’s still on oxygen (1/8 liter). Sleeping through the night with an occasional 5 a.m. G-tube feed. Doing well with a bottle as long as he’s pretty alert. Drinking almost 4 ml of thickened breast milk five times a day. G-tube is looking almost completely healed. He coos and follows voices. Loves looking at his dad, especially.
He’s still pretty sleepy sometimes, but when he’s awake, he’s really alert.
He’s a sweet and content little baby.

I’m glad to hear he’s doing so well! That picture with his arms spread out to the sides of his head. 🥰
