Day 123

Happy Father's Day Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 3425 grams (7 lb 8.8 oz) today, up 15 grams (0.5 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 63.6 grams (2.2 oz) per day over the past 7 days. I'm gaining so well that I'm going to be busting out of here pretty soon!

I was fed 8 times yesterday and I took 65 ml at each feeding. I received a total amount of 520 ml (17.6 oz) for the day. I nipple fed 37% of my intake. My last feeding was at 6 AM and I was given 65 ml by tube. My next feeding should be around 9 AM. Thank you so much for giving me breastmilk, Mommy. It really helps me! Since yesterday morning, I pooped once around 6 PM.

Ciao Mommy and Daddy. I know that you enjoy our visits as much as I do, so please come back soon.

Lots of hugs,
John Michael

PS: I love when my nurse tells me you called to talk to her. She says you should call anytime (except when she gives her report during shift change).
