NICU Nurses-a word of thanks

I just want to say that NICU nurses are wonderful. When my youngest was born, he was healthy and latched on the first day, second day he ran a fever and couldn't eat and ended up in the NICU. Granted he was not as sick as the other babies in there he just didn't know how to do the suck swallow breath thing. His NICU nurses took wonderful care of him and I just want to say thank you to his NICU nurses and all the NICU nurses on here, they truly are wonderful people :-)

I am so glad your nurses were good to you and to him. :)

Is your little man okay now?

He's good, he's 1 & 1/2 now and just oh so cute :-) I worry more about him than I did with the girls because he seems to "choke" when he eats, he's not choking choking but he seems to have a problem with eating. I don't know it has been awhile since I had a 1 yr old to feed. My sil said that maybe his little flap is not fully developed so I guess that is something to look into, but boy was everybody right when they said boys are different than girls.
