We moved again

Today was a pretty good day for Noah. He had his Upper GI test in the morning and we should have the results of that tomorrow. I was able to feed him from a bottle at his 3:00 p.m. feeding. Nana was there to cheer him on and he drank 27 ml but managed to spit up twice. If he cannot learn to bottle feed, the doctors told me I will need to learn how to put in an NG tube (the tube that goes from his nose to his stomach). There is a reason that I became a teacher and not a nurse. I told Noah that I did not want to be putting any tubes down his nose and that suctioning out his trach is hard enough as it is. We had a big discussion about keeping his food down, and Noah promised me he would think about it.Late in the afternoon, Noah moved to another room. He was transferred from Room 1 to Family Care West. It is a larger room with more babies. We were told by the nurses that he is now "one step closer to going home".It is quite an ordeal to move NICU babies around. Noah has six wires/tubes connected from his little body to different monitors in the room. When he moves, all of those wires/tubes need to be disconnected from the old monitors and reconnected to new monitors in the new room. It's a good thing he's such a little guy in a big crib, notice the "mess" he has around him. We received a "care package" in the mail yesterday from our good friends Robyn and Ira. They included some treats for Kc and I as well as the cutest "Team Noah" shirts for the three of us. Noah will have to grow a bit to fit into his, but I was able to smuggle it into the NICU for a picture. Thanks so much you guys!
