The news today was not as good.  We are back to thinking that surgery is an option again.  Hopefully, it won’t happen, but we met with the surgeon today because she thinks there might be a stricture.  We are hopeful that she’s just being an aggressive surgeon (the neonatologist didn’t think there was the same distension or anything).  The little guy is still getting fat, which is good, and he is acting happy, which is also a good sign.

They are going to do some additional tests in the next couple days to figure out why he’s not digesting and why the contrast that they put in from the previous test seems to be moving too slowly.

He has gotten awfully good at holding his pacifier (not sure that’s really the point, but he’s good at holding it):

And, he actually does suck on it, which will be great once he eats (soon!):
