Feeding Breakthrough!!

Sadie has finally had a feeding breakthrough and is doing excellent on her feeds. She is supposed to eat 70cc each feeding and today has taken over 60 every feeding! They took off her feeding tube for a trial period to see how she does without it. She took her first full feeding tonight at her 6:00pm feeding and sucked down a wopping 72! Woohoo! She is easily eating the food without struggle too. We are so excited! It is so nice to see her pretty face without tape and tubes. This week will determine if she goes home just on the bottle or if she needs an ng tube. She is such a fighter! Here are some pictures of her tonight without the feeding tube and a picture of her new room. She was 8.6 last night so she is getting to be a big girl! She is really awake and alert too and loves to look around, look at faces and also look at books, pictures etc. The teacher in me is already reading books to her! I hope to continue with good news!
