Kai and bottling

After about a week of trying to bottle Kai, last night I finally got him to bottle a little. He took about 5-10 mls. I was so excited! We had such good progress with bottling before he get sick mid-December and ever since then, he doesn't bottle much. Now since he has been battling a nasty cold, it has been really hard for him to bottle. It's like he doesn't know what to do with it. It makes me sad. I don't want him to loose interest in any oral feeding. We also do some oral stimulation with him as well.

Are they thinking of using a soft neck collar with Kai at all? Jayanthi used one and it was amazing how quickly her neck muscles strengthened up and how she learned to hold up her head. He really seems to like that new toy. He has such an inquisitive look on his face. Like he's really concentrating on it. Glad to hear things are going well.
