Day 7...Continued

Drew took another bottle at 8am. He took all 46mL by bottle!  The nurse said he did have some fluid loss out of the sides of his mouth, but that is to be expected. There is a certain way to position a preemie when bottle feeding that will help with the fluid loss. Drew weighs 5lb 2.7oz today. We are excited about his progress with the bottle.  :) After Drew nursed, Daddy showed up just in time to burp him and change a stinky diaper.   I will get to feed him a bottle at the next feeding.  I put one of Sam's preemie outfits on him.  He won't be in that size very long.
