Why won't he eat?

Kelli's First Post: We just got back from the NICU and the boy will not eat. We try and agitate him to get him to wake up and eat. He'll start wimpering and crying for a few seconds, and then he just calms right down - he is just too laid back. We probably won't think so a few days from now when he comes into his own and starts giving us a run for our money. We spent an hour between us trying to get him to eat, and then the nurse spent another 20 minutes. He took an ounce -- an ounce! That's it!!

Oh, we ran into his neo-natologist as we were walking over to see him. The doctor said that he will check him in the morning and then get him over to us tomorrow - hopefully morning, but probably early afternoon. So - PRAISE THE LORD! I'm ready to have him with us all the time. We will be heading over after we watch LOST tonight to see him one more time before lights out. Our nurse last night left us alone and let us sleep - we didn't sleep great, but at least we were left undisturbed.

I'll type more later - right now my Percoset has kicked in and I'm afraid I can't concentrate anymore.
