Day 191

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 6505 grams (14 lb 5.5 oz) today, up 35 grams (1.2 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 44.2 grams (1.6 oz) per day over the past 6 days. I'm gaining so well that I'm going to be busting out of here pretty soon!

I was fed 8 times yesterday and I took 60-90 ml at each feeding. I received a total amount of 690 ml (23.3 oz) for the day. I nipple fed 7% of my intake. My last feeding was at 6 AM and I was given 90 ml by tube. My next feeding should be around 9 AM. Thanks for the milk Mommy, it really helps me grow! I haven't pooped since yesterday morning, and the last time I went was around midnight on 8/24. Poop happens, but just not for me today. Maybe tomorrow.

As of 6 AM, I was on a nasal cannula with 100% oxygen.

Adios Mommy and Daddy. The nurses can see how happy I am when you visit.

Until I see you. Love,
John Michael
