Avery's birth story

NICU, day 72

Avery is now 6lbs 7.8oz and 17in long. She is getting so big, i am just beyond amazed at her. She is completely formula fed and doing really good with it. They are doing what they call "tough love" on her and basically forcing her to take feeds by mouth simply by removing her NG tube and not tube feeding her at all. She is doing pretty good at taking her mouth feeds and takes about 40mL at every feed. She no longer has a pulse ox on either and she keeps her o2 levels up. Hoping to have her home before her due date in 15days!
