Day 120

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 3285 grams (7 lb 3.9 oz) today, up 75 grams (2.6 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 50.7 grams (1.8 oz) per day over the past 7 days. How about this weight gain? Aren't you proud of me?

I was fed 8 times yesterday and I took 60 ml at each feeding. I received a total amount of 480 ml (16.2 oz) for the day. I nipple fed 38% of my intake. My last feeding was at 6 AM and I was given 60 ml by tube. My next feeding should be around 9 AM. Keep up the good work Mom -- I really appreciate that great breastmilk! Since yesterday morning, I pooped twice and the last time was around noon.

As of 6 AM, I was on a nasal cannula with 100% oxygen.

Ciao Mommy and Daddy. The nurses can see how happy I am when you visit.

With all my heart,
John Michael

PS: I took 35 ml by bottle at 3am, and took the rest by tube!
