Thursday night I got to give Kenadie the "first" bottle feeding, she did really good for the first few minutes, she didn't have any problems then she kind of dosed of and forgot what she was doing and choked on it, her sats and heart rate dropped but the nurse said that was normal not to worry, we tried it again a few minutes later and she just wasn't up to, so we quit, she got 3 ml of milk is all. Today when I went up to visit the nurse said she just finished feeding her and she drank the whole 1 1/2 ounce from the bottle with out any problems, she did really good and she new that she had to suck, breath, swallow. Dr Brown was really impressed and said if the mom wants to feed her later let her bottle feed her again. Another step up the ladder to being able to come home! She is up to 4 pounds 3 ounces

She looks so good! If she got that bottle down then she should just take off! Can you believe how far you've come? I'm impressed. Keep taking care of you, too.
