Here's our update for Miss Marilee. She is seriously a superstar! She came off her Oxygen on March 12 and her IV came off on March 13. She is up to 16 ml per feeding. They were going up every 9 hours by 1 ml but she is doing so well I think they will be increasing every 6 hours now. Her max will be around 27-30ml and then will just increase as she continues to grow. She is 12 lb 12 oz as of last night. She gained an ounce Sunday, Monday and 2 oz on Tuesday but was down 2 oz last night - though it didn't seem to be much of a concern (plus she pooped literally right before we weighed her- I got to change that diaper!). Here she is without her Oxygen tube!
Today when we visited, since her IV was out she had a cute little outfit on! So fun to see my little girl all dressed up! I held her skin to skin for a about an hour and a half then we put her back in her isolate. I started changing her diaper and she decided to poop! She must think I need to practice!
