2nd day on nasal canula and doing well!! During rounds, we talked about weaning my oxygen down since my saturations have remained above 95%. We also got the okay to switch my OG tube to NG so I can start bottle feeding!! yay!! Big step! ...closer to going home!

---------------------------------

During my noon feed today, Mommy gave me my 1st bottle of mommy's milk + fortifier! I drank 14ml on my 1st try before I got too tired. Mommy and my nurse said I did so good! Mommy was so happy excited!! I'm glad I can make her smile! I hope to get better and faster on drinking my milk using the bottle. For now, my nurse just gave the rest of my milk in my feeding tube.

This is hard work!

MY FIRST TIME TAKING A BOTTLE!!!

At my 3pm feed, it was Daddy's turn to feed me with the bottle. I drank 9ml! Daddy did so good getting instructions from our nurse and mommy. Mommy also showed him how to burp me. Boy, do i burp LOUD! hehehe. 

Daddy's turn to feed me!

hmmmm, this is interesting way to get my milk! hehehe

i'm not sure I like this burping thing!

6pm feed with my forumula (Enfamil Enfacare 22kcal). I took 32ml!! Mommy was proud and sad at the same time. She said I did a good job because I drank alot but she's sad because it was the formula and not mommy's milk. I hope I get use to this bottle feeding thing and won't even see a difference between formula and mommy's milk. 

Mommy's feeding me in the bed like how she feeds her patients at her work. haha!

still munching on my formula!

Thank you, Leilanie! you are one of my favorite nurses!

Today was also one of my primary nurse's last day before her 1month vacation. We are hoping to be discharge home before she comes back. We heart you to pieces, Leilanie!!
