Another good day for our little monkey!

She's up to 46 Ml of food now, still at 22 Calories. She's still having trouble doing the full feeds, but she's nippling 2 out of every 3 feeds, and every time she's nippled, she's acting like she wants to eat.

We got a pediatrician, and bought the rest of our baby stuff today. Now it's just up to Mazie. She needs to be nippling every feed, and eating all or most of it just about every time.

Well, no posts lately, because there's been no real news to speak of. Mazie's been kinda stagnant until today, and yesterday.

However, today and yesterday, she started nippling very, very well, taking most of her food every other feeding via a bottle, and during other feedings acting like she wanted a bottle, rather than what I've been calling her "Nostril feedings". The nurse I spoke with today said that as long as she continues to show improvement in that arena, and can nipple all her feedings without falling asleep early on, she could be home in a week or so.

She's up to 45 ml of food every feeding, and she's keeping it all down with no problems, no spit ups, or anything.

Michelle is doing OK now, after getting something called Mastitis, which is basically an infection of the breast tissue, often experienced by breastfeeding mothers who are using a pump rather than directly feeding the baby. She got some antibiotics for it, and her fever appears to have broken last night. She's going a bit stir crazy not being able to visit her kid though... She'll be back at 100% soon, and visiting Mazie ASAP.
