Day Twenty-six. Today we talked to the Neonatal Nurse Practitioner. She was very reassuring in letting us know that you are doing well. She told us that she wouldn't call your "set-backs"--set backs, but that the things you've gone through are normal and you are doing well. She decided it was time for you to have a "Big-Boy Binky". Which is a normal infant binky. She explained to Daddy and I that this will help your soft palate develop in your mouth. When she gave it to you, you latched right on. These are good signs that you're ready for some practice feedings. She also told me it wouldn't be long until you were out of the isolette and into an open bed! I am really excited for that.
