Heidi tipped the scales last night at 1030g!!!!!! Yay for the 1kg milestone. What a fatty!!! So that means she's put on a quarter of her original birthweight. And her central line did come out today so she's exclusively on EBM now.
We took DPs brother & wife in to see her tonight, they we just amazed and so happy to meet her. I stayed in the family room with DS and their little girl - somehow I've managed to lose my voice and get a bit throaty so I'm staying at arms length for a couple of days which is very hard. Gives me an excuse to rest up at home - DP had today off and will tomorrow as well, so he's got DS under control while I catch up on some much needed sleep in between expressing. He's my rock right now I don't know where I'd be without him.
Oh wow! I remember well how excited I was when Immy reached the kilo mark - such a wonderful milestone! Big cuddles darling Mama - you're doing so well.
Thoughts and prayers are with you, your DH and Heidi as her little body fights this challenge. I hope all the strength and weight she gained from your wonderful milk so far holds her in good stead over the next little while.
