This week we are in a holding pattern until we meet with the GI next week. Audra had a small weight gain today, which is good after her two big weight gains last week. She is on the right track.
Our nurse says that it is still premature to think of giving Audra a G tube at this point and when we meet with the GI we can tell her our preference to avoid another surgery.
So this week we are just continuing to do what we have been doing and try to get her to take more from the bottle. She takes about half of what she needs. After that she refuses to eat more. When we continue to put the bottle in her mouth, she lets the milk run out and sometimes makes herself gag and get upset. Obviously not what we want. She is due to eat now and is passed out in her nap nanny. If only she would just wake up to eat here and then go right back to sleep in her nap nanny... We can dream right ;)
