December 9th Update

Maddie is really doing great! The day of rest yesterday really made a difference in her energy level. Today she finished each of her bottles in 10-15 minutes. She was wide awake and looking around,ready to eat. It's amazing how one day can make such a difference in these little babies progress. Because of her increased stamina this afternoon, the nurses increased the frequency of Madison's bottle feedings from 2 tubal feeding & 1 bottle to 1 tubal feeding & 2 bottle. Today her weight is up to 5lbs 5 ounces.
Little Maddie is in charge of when she comes home. When she is strong and ready, then it will be time. We think it will be very soon. She will definitely be our Christmas miracle.
