Day 24, 2-27-17; Cultivating Mass

Hello Baby, you had another great day. Your vent settings got turned down a little and you handled it well. The doctors decided to add protein to your milk to try and help you pack on some pounds. BEEFCAKE! I get the feeling they wish you were gaining weight a little faster. You have plateaued a little and are kind of stable at 1 lb 10 oz. I hope this helps. They are also going to start a round of steroids for your lungs to grow faster. I get the idea you may be just a bit behind on this too. It doesn’t seem to be outside of expectations. The doctors plan on babies your size needing a little help along the way, and that’s what this is.

Mommy got to see you again today! I know you loved that. Nana also changed your diaper for the first time today!! You made it easy on her and didn’t poop. You’re a real sweetheart. Save it for Daddy. All else is good. You get stronger by the minute. We love you bunches.  img_1303
