1.6.11

There really hasn't been much development in the past few days.
Her highest weight was 2045 grams (4 lbs. 8 oz.), but she has lost 23 grams in the past few days. They said that was being caused by her burning up a lot of calories when she is fed by bottle or by me. Once she gets a little stronger, she won't burn off as many calories. I think she was also peeing off the last little bit of water retention from her infection. Hopefully, she will start gaining again soon.
She is taking about 2-3 bottles a day, sometimes all of the bottle, sometimes only about half. Then she has at least one feeding with me. These feeding tire her out, so we only try to do it about every other time. A couple days ago they gave her 4 bottles in a row and she was exhausted!
That's about all for now, she has a follow up eye exam today, so we shall see how that goes.
