Mia had a great day today. She is up to her maximum feeds of 56 cc's every 3 hours and she is doing a great job with them, in fact, the occupational therapist was working with her at 11am and said that her sucking is so much better! Her maximum feeds will continue to increase as she continues to gain weight, however, she's at her current maximum right now.
I asked the nurse how much she weighs and she said that last night she was 7 pounds 4 ounces! She continues to put on weight which is really great.
There is talk of us going home this week, maybe Thursday or Friday depending on how she continues to do. If she continues to tolerate her feeds and the cardiologists are happy with how she is doing then we could be home on Thursday! She was born on October 12th so on Wednesday she'll be 2 months, it would be awesome if we could come home Thursday or Friday.
