We took Jayden in for his weekly appointment with the ped. and he finally gained weight - 6 ounces! That is 2x more than he gained in all previous five weeks combined. He is going to continue on the formula and we are working on increasing his nightly feeds. We are so relieved we finally have something that seems to be helping.

We actually had to buy the high calorie formula and start adding pure butter or oil to his baby food. (It was very weird talking with a doctor about adding as much fat and calories as you can to someone's diet). He's loving it because he gets to eat whenever he wants.
We're scheduled to go back for a weight check at the beginning of next month. He is also scheduled for his cystic fibrosis testing at the end of this month. Keep those prayers coming:).
