Day 203

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 6350 grams (14 lb 0.0 oz) today, up 35 grams (1.2 oz) from yesterday's weight. I lost an average of 37.9 grams (1.3 oz) per day over the past 7 days. I had planned to gain some weight today, but I decided to put it off until tomorrow.

I was fed 8 times yesterday and I took 90 ml at each feeding. I received a total amount of 720 ml (24.3 oz) for the day. I nipple fed 8% of my intake. My last feeding was at 6 AM and I took 5 ml by nipple and I was given 85 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 3 times and the last time was around 9 PM.

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

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

Love,
John Michael
