NICU: Day 14 - Tube Free

Lauren has been doing great learning to feed on her own. She has done so well that they removed her feeding tube this morning. This put Katy's mind at ease because before today the doctors would force 3 ounces of food down her feeding tube every three hours. I know it sounds like fun not having to worry about chewing, but Lauren's little stomach didn't seem to be able to hold that much food and she let us know by spewing it all over the cute outfit mom picked out for her. Now, after three days of breast feeding the eruptions from her stomach have seemed to stop.
