BIG DEAL!

WE HAVE A 3 POUNDER!!!
3 Pounds 1 ounce to be exact!
To double her weight  she will need to reach 3 pounds 14 ounces! We will get there!

She is currently on a CPAP of 5%, if she does well on that she will be moved to a high flow nasal canula.
This means she will be starting to get ready to eat from a bottle and even start to learn to Breast Feed.
As of today the nurse reported she has been sucking on her binkie, a huge indication that she is preparing for this next big step. I'd say this is a big deal!

We are excited to see this progress!

I don't know how we will work out the logistics of teaching her to breast feed. I guess we'll figure it out.
Just wish she could be transferred to a hospital closer to me. Oh well!
