thanks everyone.
as you might imagine, mom's tired as all get out. silver lining to the NICU thing is that mom can rest a bit more than she would with a baby in tow.
for the time being, i get the uniquely pleasant experience of diaper-changing while the NICU nurses have a chuckle at my clumsiness. good times!There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "My ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."- Isaac Asimov

Just saw the thread. Congrats to all concerned. After all the excitement I'm sure you're enjoying that solid 8 hours you get every night.If you are emotionally invested in 'believing' something is true you have lost the ability to tell if it is true.

the first few nights weren't too bad; had to wake him up every 4 hours for a feeding.
then the doc said he was gaining weight too fast, and for a glorious 3 weeks we could let him sleep through the night, with maybe a feeding in between.
then a week and a half ago, he was "gaining weight too slow", and now has to go through 2 hour feeds-- complete misery, as the baby had to be woken up, fed a moderate amount (too much and he'd throw it up), burped, and then put back to sleep. z's statement above came true!
cuteness keeps the baby alive!

Gaining wait too fast, gaining weight to slow, can't say I heard that myself. Yet my son was 10lbs. 10oz. when born via C-section which is why he was C-section for a Filipina. The doc let me stand in for the surgery/delivery and the kid was big.
