update

Hi,
Today, we went to the pediatrician and Jules had gained 13 grams a day bringing him up to 18.7 pounds! So, we are going to continue on the 35 calories per ounce and hope for some big growth by the jan. 19th pulmonary clinic meetings.
His lungs sounded good off oxygen.
Dr. was happy to see his cold was on the way out and that he had gained weight.
We are going to do an echo-cardiogram 1/19th as well as labs, etc... to make sure his heart is not strained by doing so much work to push oxygen around his blood and we are hoping we will get the all clear to be off oxygen.
tomorrow, is julian's one year BIG developmental assessment.
Joy
