Day 135

Happy Friday Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 3965 grams (8 lb 11.9 oz) today, down 55 grams (1.9 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 62.1 grams (2.2 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 70 ml at each feeding. I received a total amount of 560 ml (18.9 oz) for the day. I took all my milk by tube. My last feeding was at 6 AM and I was given 70 ml by tube. My next feeding should be around 9 AM. Thanks for the milk Mommy, it really helps me grow! Since yesterday morning, I pooped 4 times and the last time was around midnight.

As of 6 AM, I was on a high flow nasal cannula with 44% oxygen.

Sayanara Mommy and Daddy. I think I need some pictures around me, so please bring me some.

I'll love you always,
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).
