Terri just called me after Matthew's GI appointment at Dr. Dezenburg's office. She reports that the redness around Matthew's G-tube is common and not a cause for concern. However, Dr. Dezenburg is concerned about how underweight Matthew is. So starting tonight we will increase his overnight feed rate from 30ml to 36ml per hour. Dr. Dezenburg called these his "crying calories" and states that this should help Matthew gain weight.

He is getting cuter and cuter with those big, wise blue eyes. I have to peek at him online every once in a while.
