First bath - no gustar

Ahhh the soothing feeling of warm water on the skin. WAA WAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Martha gave Nicolas a bath today with the help of the nurse. He didn't really like it. Nope. Nada. I hope this attitude changes over time.

This week we have a new goal: to get Nicolas to eat from a bottle. He has a good suckling reflex but not so good swallowing reflex. Anyhow...it's all a learning experience for him and we need to get him to eat like a normal baby so he can come home. He manages to eat about 10 ccs at a time with the bottle and then the rest is fed to him via the gavage tube which he's had now since he was about 3days old.

Now he has to work for it. :-)
