What a difference a day makes! Parker is doing so well today. His Dad came back to the hospital for his 1:00 a.m. feeding, (yes, my husband is already an amazing father, he's been doing this almost every night since Parker was born)and he took 40 cc's (1.35 ozs.) for him. This is fantastic! He also weighed in last night at
6 lbs., 14 oz.! Our goal was birthweight by today which was 6 lbs., 11 ozs., so he blew that goal out of the water by gaining 4 ozs in one day! Go Parker!
This morning he ate a personal best of 54 cc's (1.83 ozs.) from the bottle, so we hope we're turning a corner. He's definitely more alert and awake, which helps when he eats. His actual due date was today, so maybe now he feels fully baked. :)
