51 Days later...

and we have more than doubled our birth weight! Sydney weighs 3lbs 6oz this morning and that's quite a gain since yesterday. I had to ask the nurse to check that she wasn't looking at another baby's chart. She had a significant gain last Saturday too so I guess she's just figured out that this is her ticket home. :laugh: The nurse says she keeps moving her body off of her body positioner and pushing her face up against the porthole. She has to go in there and reposition her every 30 minutes or so because she looks like she's ready to be free of that thing. I'm thinking she's ready for her open bed in the Intermediate nursery.

Everything else is stable with her and she's now at 26ccs for her feedings.
