He's been smiling for 2 months...but all the time lately. He's been giggling for a couple weeks but had a real LAUGH a few days ago & then last night. The only thing was, he was asleep both times, so he must have funny dreams, LOL. He's also grasping and shaking a rattle! How exciting! (That's as of today.) His reflux is still going downhill, but gradually. He's worst in the late afternoon and early evening, so a much smaller chunk of the day. I think we'll be able to hold outo until his appt less than 2 weeks away without an earlier phone call. He seems to have started teething too. He's drooling puddles and just a little cranky, def different than when he cries b/c of reflux. I tried some little teethers gel earlier and it worked wonders. He was able to nap for an hour, then bottle time. He's really growing too. I had to buy him new shoes the other day bc his NB shoes had gotten too small. NB pants are still a bit on the loose side, but preemies are too short, LOL! All in all he's doing pretty well.

Hey girl! Sounds like he is doing great, esp for being a preemie! Hunter is doing similarly. Although he is eating a little less. He is eating about 5oz every 3 hours. He has moments during the day that he just wants 3oz, but then an hour later will want the rest. This makes it very hard to make a bottle up! BUT he has been eating fully at night, then sleeping ALL night, up at 6am, eat 5 oz and then back to sleep until about 10-11am!!! This makes it very nice to be able to sleep in a little! OR be able to get some things done. There have been a couple times that I wonder if he would have eaten 6oz. But, 5oz is fine for now! I think overall he is getting at least 24 oz in a 24 hour period too. So, just about the same. Is your DS smiling at all that? I just LOVE this stage...where everything makes them smile, and my DS ALMOST laughed last night. It was so cute! It sounds like his reflux is getting better?? I hope, you SOOOOO deserve that!
