NICU, day 50

Nothing really new to report. We got to be there when they stripped her down and weighed her last night, she doesn't care. In fact I think she kind of likes being naked, LOL. Anyway, no new changes on her orders, she just really needs to learn how to eat from a bottle. Yesterday during day shift she took 25mL of her feeding and then when i was feeding her during night shift she took 20mL. She isn't taking whole feedings but we are making good progress, she is taking at least 1/2 of her feeding by mouth when the bottle is offered so i think that is pretty good. She was 4lb 10.3oz and 15in long, so she has officially doubled her birth weight in 7 weeks! I think she is definitely on the up hill slope to 5lbs which seems so crazy to me because of how small she was at birth. I still have so much to do before she comes home and i feel like i don't have the time, energy or money to do them.
