Just Call Her "Hoover"
Well, we thought Emma was doing well yesterday when she was able to take 5 ml. from her bottle.
Apparently, we ain't seen nothin' yet!
Overnight, she took 10 and 17 mls. by bottle. This afternoon, after a trial of breastfeeding, Emma took another 14 mls. by bottle. Then, her nurse called after her 6:00 p.m. feed, just to let me know that Emma had taken her entire feed (24 ml.) by bottle. Eric was in to visit Emma tonight, and he just called to say that she had taken another full bottle! She's just doing amazingly well and the team is astounded by her progress... Let's hope the trend continues!

Wow, how wonderful! It would seem to me that she heard that she could go home when she had gained more weight. So, there she goes trying her hardest to go home with you guys :)
Great news,
Anna
Emma you are making up for all the bottles you have missed. This is wonderful news. You will need to work two jobs each Eric and Laurie just to feed her. YAHOO for Emma. She will be home sooner than later at this rate.
Lots of hugs, kisses and love to you all....
That is fantastic!! Can't wait to see those chubby cheeks get ever more squishable from all of her eating!
Poor Emma has been starving for a bottle all this time. "Finally!" she said, "Something decent to eat!"
