Day 59

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 1190 grams (2 lb 10.0 oz) today, up 20 grams (0.7 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 17.1 grams (0.6 oz) per day over the past 7 days. I'm starting to do better in terms of my weight, but I think I'll check with my nurses and doctors and see if they can help me gain some more.

I received feedings by pump yesterday at a rate of 7.8 ml/hr and I received a total amount of 187 ml (6.3 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. I know it's a lot of work Mom, but keep on pumping! I'm worth every drop! Since yesterday morning, I pooped 3 times and the last time was around 4 AM.

As of 4 AM, I was on a mechanical ventilator with 54% oxygen.

Ta-ta for now Mommy and Daddy. Your visits are the best!

Loving you always,
John Michael
