Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 3730 grams (8 lb 3.6 oz) today, up 70 grams (2.5 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 41.4 grams (1.5 oz) per day over the past 7 days. You should be impressed by the way I'm gaining. This is just grand!
I was fed 8 times yesterday and I took 65-70 ml at each feeding. I also nursed once. I received a total amount of 545 ml (18.4 oz) for the day. Aside from breastfeeding, I nipple fed 50% of my intake. My last feeding was at 6 AM and I was given 70 ml by tube. My next feeding should be around 9 AM. I'm so glad you're giving me breastmilk -- it's the best food for me! Since yesterday morning, I pooped once around 5 PM.
As of 6 AM, I was on a nasal cannula with 100% oxygen.
So long Mommy and Daddy. My nurses and doctors are taking great care of me, but it's your voice I know and love, so please come soon!
Love you so much,
John Michael
PS: Your calls are always welcome (except during change of shift, when my nurses need time to tell each other all about me).
