Day 106, 2230 gramsI know I lost a bit of weight, but they seem to think I gained a little to fast lately. So they gave me some Lasix--remember Lasix? Everyone's favorite diuretic! I had a pretty strong dose and then filled my diaper yesterday with 150 grams of pee! New record! So needless to say I shed a few grams because of that...
On to the BIG NEWS.
The big news today is that I took the bottle on all six of my feeds! No tubes! Now we can start the countdown to my homecoming. I need to do this for four more days to prove that I am a big baby, so we may be looking at Sunday at the earliest. Then it's me, mom and dad, 24/7!
I'd like to send a big shout out to my new friend Baby Augusto in Brazil. He is going in for his PDA surgery tomorrow--you'll recall that I had the same procedure on April 21st. Please take a moment to click his link and visit his blog (in Portuguese!), and if you have the time, leave a comment for him and his parents. I'm sure they would appreciate the support. Sorte boa, meu amigo.
And remember: chicks dig scars!
