Desperate times

So what if the cup is bigger than his face?

If he's going to keep going on these hunger strikes, we're going to pump food and water into our little guy by whatever means happen to work best at the moment. And drinking all of daddy's water at dinnertime sure beats the hour I spent feeding him six ounces of formula on a spoon.

In other news, I'm ignoring the recommendation of my pediatrician and my GI specialist to hold off on solid foods until Jacob's stomach matures. This kid wants to eat. And if my milk smelled as bad as what I'm putting in his bottle, I'd be rejecting it too. Rice cereal and oatmeal have been a huge hit. I see some squash puree and mashed sweet potatoes in his future.
