Day 209

Good morning Mommy and Daddy! I weigh 6630 grams (14 lb 9.9 oz) today, up 10 grams (0.4 oz) from yesterday's weight. I gained an average of 40.7 grams (1.4 oz) per day over the past 7 days. You should be impressed by the way I'm gaining. This is just grand!

I was fed 8 times yesterday and I took 90 ml at each feeding. I also nursed twice. I received a total amount of 720 ml for the day. A fluid oz is about 30 ml so this is about 24.3 oz. Aside from breastfeeding, I nipple fed 1% 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! Since yesterday morning, I pooped 6 times and the last time was around 3 AM.

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

Miss you Mommy and Daddy. I really look forward to snuggling with you.

Lots of love,
John Michael
