Well great news today!  We believe that we have found a formula that Jack's stomach can tolerate.  The last two stools have been blood free!  Yeppie!!!  He weighs 5 pounds 5.3 ounces!  I am so glad that he is able to tolerate his feedings now.  He had to have the feeding tube put back in.  They were increasing his feedings and he finally made it to his max today and it was just too much for him.  He is still growing and getting stronger so they think that he will get the hang of eating all his feedings soon.  They took the IV out of his foot today.  So we traded the IV for the feeding tube, which I think I would rather him have the feeding tube them the IV.  Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers!
