Feeding a preemie

So I've come to find that feeding a preemie isn't as easy as I thought it would be. My goal with this baby was to nurse and only nurse for however long he wanted. Well that all obviously changed once he came 8 weeks early!
Remember how I had planned to make this stash last until Adrian was one!


Yeah that didn't happen. It was gone before he was six months! I'm still not sad I made the choice to quit nursing. He's doing good with formula...we just struggle with solids a bit now. We're up to drinking 4 ounces now at most! I'm proud of how far we've come from the 2 ounces in the Nicu!


He does ok with solids. He gags a lot still. He doesn't seem to enjoy any of the flavors. I almost want to let him try finger foods, but he's so not ready! Especially if he gags on just cereal. He will get there I know this, so for now we're still going slow and drinking more bottles than anything!
