Day 82

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 1770 grams (3 lb 14.4 oz) today, up 40 grams (1.4 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 11.5 ml/hr and I received a total amount of 276 ml for the day. A fluid oz is about 30 ml so this is about 9.3 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. Thank you so much for giving me breastmilk, Mommy. It really helps me! Since yesterday morning, I pooped once around 4 PM.

As of 4 AM, I was on a high flow nasal cannula with 25% oxygen.

Bye-bye Mommy and Daddy. I love the way your voice calms me.

Love,
John Michael
