Well, progress is happening which is a major positive. The somewhat negative is that it is SSSLLLLOOOOOWWWW. Maddie is now up to 3 lbs. 15 oz. !!! That was a huge gain from yesterday. Maddie also got the opportunity for the first time today to have a bottle instead of using her feeding tube. Mommy got to feed her and she took almost all of the 38mL. She had about 5 left that got pushed through the tube. We still consider that a big accomplishment. Here's to quick progress from here. . .let's hope!!!
