shots :(

So Edward got his first immunizations today he did not enjoy them at all! They also did a cortisol test to see if they could try and ween him off the hydricortison again but he did not do well and now they are going to test his pituitary to see if that is the problem. if it is he may need to take hormones for a very long time. Other than that the only thing exciting that happened was he sort of fits into a preemie sized shirt! I was so excited I went and bought him preemie clothes but when I took them to try them on him the were still extremely huge :( oh well! oh and he is now 3 pounds 5 oz.! well here are a few pictures to enjoy! Good night! ~Misty

Good Day.

Hello everyone, Daddy's back and its his turn to post. Edward had a pretty good day today, nothing negative to report. His feeds have gone up again to 16cc every 2 hours and now weighs 2lb. 14 oz, just short of 3 lb. They are getting ready to move him to cares and feed every 3 hours. He also got another bath tonight, He seemed to enjoy it a little more this time compared to last week. Well not much more to report. Thank you all again for all of your thoughts and prayers.
