Anna Update 4/18/2004

Good news when we visited Anna today:

After her pulling her own feeding tube out of her nose twice yesterday, they have not put it back in. In fact, she is taking her full bottle at every feeding (at least for over 24 hours now). Her current feeding is 36cc of fortified breast milk every 3 hours – allowing her to take more if she wants it.

Her weight this AM (Sunday) was 3 lbs 14.6 oz, a gain of 1.8 oz over the last 24 hours!

She’s getting closer to coming home. We are hoping that this will be her last full week in the hospital. When she passes 4 lbs, they will start her in a crib – preparing her for going home. Diana will spend the night in the hospital with her her last night.

Praise God!

Sorry, no new pictures yet. Hope to have some new ones to post tomorrow (Monday).
