Moving Up

This morning will be the first time I get to nurse Chase fully for the first time. He's been doing well with feedings the past few days, so the doc said he's ready to graduate to the next step! He'll keep his feeding tube until he is able to take all of his feedings from me or the bottle- a step that would put him close to discharge! We are still waiting on the blood culture to make sure the infection from his eye didn't spread anywhere, but otherwise all is status quo!
