Since Caleb is just a few days shy of four months old, she encouraged us to try offering him some rice cereal 2-3 times each day. She said that eating with a spoon will help Caleb's tongue control/strength. He ate about two teaspoons this morning.
I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him. - 1 Samuel 1:27

The bottle isn't the "be all and end all"
Our Sooner Start occupational therapist came to the house yesterday. She brought a couple bottles for us to try with Caleb. As we were trying the new bottles and talking about how tired I am of having to do NG feeds, she reminded me that "taking a bottle isn't the 'be all and end all'". He won't take a bottle or do NG feeds forever, so this struggle will pass.
