Nina has been busy lately! Yesterday, she apparently wriggled out of her diaper and pooped all over her little bed! Can you blame her? Why sleep in a diaper if you can sleep naked?
This just in: Today, she successfully breastfed for the first time! Dawning reports that she latched on and actually got quite a bit of milk. Mommy says, "I know she got a lot because she puked it up all over me." Dawning speculates that the gavage feed (through the nose-tube) that started at about the same time might have been too much for her. The nurse thinks that Nina probably got too much air with the milk, so burping sent it all back up (her esophagus isn't so strong just yet).
Anyway, this is GREAT, AMAZING news! Tomorrow, Nina will be 4 weeks old (and only 32 weeks + 5 days, gestationally speaking)... and is starting to breastfeed! Go Nina!
In other Nina news, Grandpa Greenstreet arrived today from Alaska! Stay tuned for further reports...
