Eat This, U of M


Finally, fresh new pix. We have tentatively started Bo on solids these last 2 weeks. UMich docs threatened us with increased diarrhea to the point of dehydration. No such thing has occurred. In fact, ever since we left their care in September, I have been regularly breastfeeding him, albeit in much smaller volumes than his peer group eats, but breastfeeding, nonetheless.
And, his WBCs were in the normal range today (16.7). Though his bilirubin was up slightly, 0.1 is still awesome, and pretty darn close to last week's 0.0. Another great day with our new best friend, Bo. We are so lucky.
