Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 3520 grams (7 lb 12.2 oz) today, up 75 grams (2.6 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 52.1 grams (1.8 oz) per day over the past 7 days. I'm gaining so well that the nurses want me to teach some of the other babies how to gain weight.
I was fed 8 times yesterday and I took 60-65 ml at each feeding. I received a total amount of 515 ml (17.4 oz) for the day. I nipple fed 35% 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. I know it's hard to pump Mom, but please keep working on this -- it really helps me. Since yesterday morning, I pooped 3 times and the last time was around 3 PM.
As of 6 AM, I was on a nasal cannula with 100% oxygen.
Bye-bye Mommy and Daddy. I am looking forward to your loving touch.
Lots of hugs,
John Michael
PS: My nurse told me to remind you to call anytime you want.
