Day 204

Happy Friday Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 6400 grams (14 lb 1.7 oz) today, up 50 grams (1.8 oz) from yesterday's weight. I lost an average of 12.9 grams (0.5 oz) per day over the past 7 days. I haven't been gaining much weight yet, but before you know it, I'll be begging for cookies.

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 2% 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 4 times and the last time was around 9 PM.

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

Bye-bye Mommy and Daddy. Please come and see me soon.

A big smooch,
John Michael

PS: I took 10ml at 9PM, and 5ml at 6AM. I did have a nice night's sleep though!!
