It was a big day for Carter yesterday. He gained 3 oz, bringing him over the 3lb barrier!!! He is now 3lb, 2oz. He is still doing pretty well at his feedings. 2 nights ago, he took in a personal best from the bottle, 23ml. He is now getting 28 ml per feeding, so he's doing really well. He needs to consistently take over half of his feeding from the bottle and then they will begin to increase how often he is fed through the bottle or breastfeeding.
Anderson is also growing. He is up to 4lbs, 11oz. He is not quite as good at feeding as Carter, but he's working on it. His record is 17ml out of the bottle, but he gets 38ml per feeding, so he's not quite up to half.
No other updates today. Hopefully Carter will leave his isolette soon and join his brother. We'll let you know!
