Day 25

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 730 grams (1 lb 9.7 oz) today, up 40 grams (1.4 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 15.7 grams (0.6 oz) per day over the past 7 days. I'm moving in the right direction, weight-wise. I'm thinking that a hamburger would really hit the spot -- hold the onions.

I received feedings by pump yesterday at a rate of 0.5 ml/hr and I received a total amount of 12 ml (0.4 oz) for the day. I took all my milk by tube. My last feeding was at 7 AM. I can't figure out when my next feeding will be, so check with my nurse. Thank you so much for giving me breastmilk, Mommy. It really helps me! Since yesterday morning, I pooped once around 4 PM.

As of 5 AM, I was on a mechanical ventilator with 39% oxygen.

Arrivederci Mommy and Daddy. Bring your favorite book to read to me. I will love hearing that story.

I'll love you always,
John Michael
