Milestone 4: No episodes

Joey hasn't had a bradycardia (heart rate drop) since Saturday, April 23rd.  He was only suffering those during a feeding so we changed his bottle to a Dr. Brown's bottle, which supposedly is a slower flow.  Now that all of his feedings has been via bottle, I was taught to "pace" him during the feeding.  That means to actually tip the bottle so that there isn't any milk in the nipple so that Joey doen't get ahead of himself.  It seems to be working!!!
