Today at Jordan’s therapy at MFB, Deb started her with a bottle of Pediasure (8oz w/ 3 packets of Simply Thick-Honey) through a stage 3 nipple. She drank pretty well and showed signs of wetness a couple of times but never coughed. She took around 4 oz in 20 minutes with some breaks in between. We then put her in the highchair and let her play with some teething toys encouraging her to stick out her tongue and move it from side to side. Deb encouraged me to do this at home with her and told me if I have any concerns to call Ellen.
It was a very different therapy because we had just been their yesterday and Jordan was still doing well with the bottle we started then. Hopefully she will continue to drink well through next week's appt. Otherwise, I will have to go back to spoon feeding her.
