"Bentley the Bear"

One of the nurses put a sign on Bentley's cot that says "bentley the bear" if you wake me~I will live up to my name!!! Luv Bentley. So as you guessed he was a little grumpy. He was SO hungry but still no feeds by mouth. They have now up'd his NG feeds to 6ml/hour which is more than double what he has ever been fed and now he just sleeps! He is such a cutie, a few of the nurses are all ready "setting him up" with other little babes in nursery. Again today we have been told he may transfer but really I'm getting sick of hearing it but it not happening. I just hope he transfers before Christmas so we can all be with him at the same time on Christmas Day. Otherwise we need to take turns. We don't have a lot of news~yesterday Christopher and I helped do the dressing change (Daddy didn't even pass out!) Bentley's omphalocele looks so good. Things are still moving in the right direction. We are TRYING not to be too excited~cause we know there's up's and down's, but it's hard to stay grounded when all is going SO well. Well I'm going to go get ready so I can try to make it there before rounds, we will keep the information as current as we can~ you guys keep praying!
Luv and Hugs

  1. That is terrific news all around! If you are around next week at the hospital, we'd love to come and see you guys. We're going to be up on the 25th and Matt will be around until the 27th but Tanner and I are staying up (he has a doctor appointment) until the 1st. Let me know...we'd love to meet your new little one.
