Day 156

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 4775 grams (10 lb 8.4 oz) today, up 35 grams (1.2 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 35.0 grams (1.2 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 85-90 ml at each feeding. I received a total amount of 715 ml (24.2 oz) for the day. I nipple fed 26% of my intake. My last feeding was at 6 AM and I took 45 ml by nipple and I was given 45 ml by tube. My next feeding should be around 9 AM. Thanks for the breastmilk Mommy! I love it! Since yesterday morning, I pooped once around 6 PM.

As of 6 AM, I was on a high flow nasal cannula with 30% oxygen.

Aloha Mommy and Daddy. Come visit me soon. I love when you hold my hand and talk to me.

Love you lots,
John Michael

PS: See if my nurse can put me on the phone next time you call :)
