Back in June, before we started at Boston Children’s Hospital, we would have never dreamed Lucas would be at the great place he is today. In June, Lucas was receiving all of his calories from formula (around 800 calories per day). Fast forward to now, Lucas is eating real food which makes up 800 – 900 calories per day. Plus, he still drinks around 300 – 400 calories from formula. For a total of 1100 – 1400 calories per day. The nutritionists and GI doctors at Boston Children’s Hospital want us to hit at least 1200 – 1400 calories per day. Lucas is right on track! The end goal is for Lucas to eat so much food that we can eliminate the formula. With every passing day, we are one step closer to our end goal!

Lucas loves his food
