Alyssa is finally 10 pounds and continues to gain weight. We are very excited. They have increased her feeds to 21 per hour plus 20cc's by bottle every three and was taken off the "TPN and Lipids" yesterday. (no iv nutrition!!) I guess our goal is between 26 and 30 this go around. It is very common to lose a little weight after coming off TPN but I would love her to continue gaining. She has increased her pooping a little bit, but we are half the amount of when we came in. So it is still okay, but we are a little scared about that and have voiced our concern with the doctors. They fully understand and we may only increase her feeds by 1 cc versus the 4 we have been doing a day.
Things are looking good and actually the best she has ever done. Let's all keep our fingers crossed and keep praying that she continues on this path. No more set backs!!
