Progress

Melanie has been doing pretty well.  She's been nippling well.  Her nurse even told me the other day that she could just breastfeed and didn't need a bottle also.  She said if she didn't get enough it wasn't a big deal because she didn't need to become a butterball.  She's been gaining weight like crazy.  We think she will be four pounds over night tonight.  She had a few problems a few days back with d-sats over night.  Her nurse had to touch her to get her to breath and supposedly her coloring changed.  Poor thing.  She hasn't had any since then so that's a relief.  She had an eye exam that day and they said sometimes the eye drops effect things.  She will be four weeks old tomorrow and will be a month old on Wednesday.  She has come so far in a month.  She's a trooper and a fighter.  We love her so much!
