Day 36

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 820 grams (1 lb 12.9 oz) today, down 30 grams (1.1 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 22.9 grams (0.8 oz) per day over the past 7 days. I'm getting bigger and bigger day by day. Pretty soon I'll need some new clothes. Be sure to get me some good looking stuff!

I received feedings by pump yesterday at a rate of 2-2.5 ml/hr and I received a total amount of 58 ml for the day. A fluid oz is about 30 ml so this is about 1.9 oz. 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. Thanks for the breastmilk Mommy! I love it! Since yesterday morning, I pooped 4 times and the last time was around 4 AM.

As of 4 AM, I was on a mechanical ventilator with 45% oxygen.

See you soon Mommy and Daddy. Please tell me things about our family the next time you visit.

Lots of love,
John Michael
