18:45 SMA-sust 3.5cc.
Hiccups before end of feed so put on back
and rubbed stomach-Seemed to enjoy-
Anyway, no more hiccups. Then finished feed.
Fell asleep in same position in my hand. Seems
to go through several stages. Have noticed this
in sock: (1) doses gradually with eyes half
closed, making sucking motions with mouth
kneading gestures with hands; (2) eyes
gradually close tightly at which time he
makes little chirps, nestles deeper into
hand or sock, making sniffling & nudging
sounds as butts with head (3) Then is
completely out and relaxed - Quiet, and
can even pick up and doesn't wake up.
