3 lbs 3 ozs and rising!

The news of the week is that Stella is gaining weight quite nicely. She is eating 27ozs of food through her little nose tube and is handling it very well. Now whenever they feed her they try to give her a binky so that she associates the feeling of getting a full tummy with sucking. The next step will be for her to try to eat on her own without the feeding tube. I don't know when that might happen but she's doing so well it could be any time.

Last night I went out with friends for dinner and didn't get a chance to see Stella so I'm planning on going over tonight after my stop at the gym. I hope to have more photos for you tomorrow!

Stella sends her love to all and so do I!
