Day 81

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 1730 grams (3 lb 13.0 oz) today, up 45 grams (1.6 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 37.9 grams (1.3 oz) per day over the past 7 days. You should be impressed by the way I'm gaining. Everyone is complimenting me for the great job I'm doing.

I received feedings by pump yesterday at a rate of 11-11.5 ml/hr and I received a total amount of 275 ml (9.3 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. Keep up the good work Mom -- I really appreciate that great breastmilk! I haven't pooped since yesterday morning, and the last time I went was around 8 PM on 5/4. I didn't poop today but that's OK. By the time I get home, I promise to keep you very busy.

As of 7 AM, I was on a high flow nasal cannula with 28% oxygen.

Miss you Mommy and Daddy. Please come and see me soon.

Hugs and kisses,
John Michael

PS: My nurse told me to remind you to call anytime you want.
