No Feeding Tube!

We had our doctors appointment to find out if the Munchkin will have to have a feeding tube. He gained a pound!! The doctor still wanted to put in a feeding tube though. My amazing husband talked her out of it for now. He is so awesome. He brought up the point that before he was on the new formula, he was only gaining 1 gram per day and last month he gained 12 grams per day. He has started to "army" crawl so putting a feeding tube in would definitely discontinue that for a while. She agreed to see how he does the next two months. She wants him to be gaining 24 grams per day and drinking 4 boxes of his 8oz. formula per day. Whew, that is a lot but he can do it! He drank only 1 box so far today so we will see how he does.
