The official weight today is: 8 lbs 10 ounces, which is half a pound less than a week ago.
The plan is to admit him to U of M Mott's Children's Hospital on Wednesday. They are going to gavage his feedings for a couple days to give him a controlled caloric intake and to track the problem down. It may be he is not taking in enough calories to meet his needs or it may be that he is not processing them properly. I'm sure it will be an interesting few days and involve new tests and procedures we're not familiar with yet. He should be there 3 or 4 days.
A Brief Introduction
This blog follows the life of one Tobias, who was born in the 25th week of pregnancy. Despite his minuscule size, Toby has already amassed a great number of people who care about him, his health, and his family. It is our hope that this blog will keep those caring people updated on all the particulars and praises.
There are two main contributors:
Nancy - is Tobias' mother. It is she who actually knows what is going on, and thus will make most of the updates.
Kathryn (ymryson) - Toby's sister, mostly here for technical backup, though she tends to chime in from time to time.
Thank you all for your love and support. We truly appreciate the care and concern you have shared with us during this time.
