OK, it's official... Macsen's second surgery will be the last day of February. We'll probably head back to Philly on Monday the 25th, so they can do the pre-admission testing on the 26th and Cath on the 27th.
Additionally, Super M hit the 10 pound mark this past weekend and he's steadily climbing. Still only on breastmilk and now Alex is hard-pressed -- literally -- to keep up with little man's feeding schedule. I guess it takes a lot of calories to grow that much shiny hair!
Thank you all for your continued prayers and support -- it's definitely helping.

Hello,
ReplyDeleteI am 27 weeks pregnant with a borderline HLHS/Shones's complex baby girl. She will also be born and have her surgeries at CHOP. I noticed on here that your son is using only breast milk. Is he taking milk straight from the breast? I strongly desire to breastfeed but have been told there are many struggles. I will pump if necessary but having the child on the breast is an amazing thing for me. I have a 16 mos old son who I breastfed for 6 mos. It was an amazing time. Whether it be pumped or from the breast, that is wonderful that you are providing that nutrition to your baby. I found your site through the "linked by the heart" data base. Your story is inspiring. Heart Hugs. -Cheryl
