My son was 4lbs when he was born and i fed him with what looked like an eye dropper. We used to stress about him not eating enough. Today at 22 he has shoulders as wide as a doorway and eats us out of house and home. My wife shakes her head and says 'Remeber when we worried about him eating enough?"
And i do believe in the mind to body link also.

Those are some pretty wide shoulders for a kid that weighs 22 lbs. How old is he now?

LMAO

It's pretty simple. You play with four dumb****s and one of the four dumb****s decides to move the thing to try and freak out the other three dumb****s into believing that the dumb****ing board actually works or something.

No..he's 22 as in years now. He was 4 lbs and is now 6' about 215. His sister was 8lbs when she was born is grown up and weighs prob 120. i guess birth weight doesn't always tell you how big a person is going to be.

Pretty much
Or someone steers it to the answer they want to hear/see.

Was he a preemie? She weighed 4lbs 13oz at birth, and is about 15 lbs now at 8 months old. Started out getting milk from a tube in her nose, and came home eating 45 cc's (about 1.5 oz) from a bottle every 3 hours. Now she's on solids twice a day! She's petite, but healthy as can be.


Oh, and even she knows that Ouija boards are a crock of crap. She's smart that way.

But the 97 minutes you spent watching Lost Boys was worthwhile?

Yes he was and that was the way he was fed the way you describe they called it cavage(spelling?) or something like that. it broke my heart to see that so that's when the nurse's said I could feed him with the eye dropper thing like a regular bottle. I lived at the hospital pretty much during that time because the image of him having that tube in him just made me sick.
And by the way she's a cutie.

I have this feeling he has spent more than 97 minutes watching Lost Boys.

I HATED that freaking thing. I went off on a few of the nurses because they were using the ng tube even after the doctor ordered all feeds to be done by bottle. I ended up staying at the hospital 24/7 until they released her so I could do all of her feedings myself. I'm still mad about it. She ate fine for Aces and me. It made things worse that I gave up nursing to get her home. We worked on that for the next several weeks at home.

She was born 6 weeks premature and spent 13 days in NICU. How early was your son and how long was he in NICU?

He was 4 weeks early. I am a syracuse fan and they were playing penn state on sat he was born the friday night before the game. SU beat penn state on day 2 of his life.Years later I told him he was premature just so he could say su beat penn state in his lifetime. he was under UV lights and had to wear this little knit hat under the lights. We saved it and showed it to him when he was like 20 and said that used to be yours. It wouldn't fit over his hand now. He was in NICU for 10 days.
Getting him out of there was prob the happiest day of my life.

lay off the dust & meth.....

dust & meth = Ouija Board fuel

Ouija Boards... those are still around? So dumb.

She was due July 3, and my water broke Memorial Day. I think she heard all the patriotic music and got confused. :)

Aces parents just happened to be in town when she was born (they live 10 hours away and were picking up the grandkids for a trip to their house). So she had perfect timing for Grandma and Grandpa to be there.

Baby girl was born May 26 and came home June 8. The two happiest days of my life. The thirteen days in between were the most terrifying.
