The vomiting has become much worse. When it’s time to eat he takes about 7 or 8 ounces. We try feeding less, but he raises a ruckus. He is old enough to recognize his bottle, and old enough to recognize that hollering will get him what he wants. When we feed him 8 ounces, if we don’t lay him down for about an hour then he’ll give the food back. He doesn’t just spit up either. I’m talking about changing his bib, changing his clothes, and changing my clothes. Then he’s hungry again. Of course we will ask the doctor about this, but we don’t expect any answers.
Speaking of doctors, we heard from the pulmonolgist yesterday. After 10 months and many many thousands of dollars of oxygen, and thousands more in equipment, we can take Jordan off of the oxygen full time….just as soon as he recovers from the cold I gave him. In my defense I didn’t give it to him, he took it. When you carry him he tends to taste you. If he can’t taste you, he’ll touch you and then taste his hand. When you think about it, it’s amazing that he hasn’t gotten sick before now. Considering everything he’s been through in the past, his mother is handling it well. Neither of us is freaking out over this, but he doesn’t seem to mind having a runny nose, it just gives him something new to taste. I do have a hunch that the mama Ali won’t admit he’s over this cold for another 10 months.

I'm not cool with the whole vomiting thing. I admittedly know squat about what to expect from babies, but don't let this doctor guy push you off with the "he's just fine" excuse if you really think something's wrong. Mama Ali, I know you got this covered, but offer still stands: I will come to Florida, and kick some doctor tail if need be.
