Day 163

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 5140 grams (11 lb 5.3 oz) today, up 80 grams (2.8 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 45.7 grams (1.6 oz) per day over the past 7 days. My nurse gave me a gold star for my weight gain.

I was fed 8 times yesterday and I took 90 ml at each feeding. I also nursed once. I received a total amount of 720 ml (24.3 oz) for the day. Aside from breastfeeding, I nipple fed 53% of my intake. My last feeding was at 6 AM and I took 10 ml by nipple and I was given 80 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 midnight.

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

Sayanara Mommy and Daddy. Come visit me soon.

Love you lots,
John Michael

PS: I took my entire bottle at 9PM and at 3AM!!!!! I took 50ml by mouth at midnight. And at 6AM I only took 10ml, but my nurse said I was pretty sleepy from working so hard all night. Yayy!!!!
