All is well. She usually wakes up at her 4 hour feeding mark and has been taking about 75cc per time. She doesn't really cry she does fuss some mostly when she is waking up. The nurse was out today to see her and says she is doing good. She is a newborn and all she does is eat sleep and poop. She is only awake a few minutes to feed then usually goes back to sleep. Thanks every one for all the prayers as you can tell they worked.

She is doing good went to the doctor yesterday she weighed 5lbs 2oz. Her blood level is ok. She has been eating well, ever 3 to 4 hours on demand. The nurse came and checked her today and all seems well there.
Visitors are welcome, just if you are sick please wait to visit till you are better. Great News Natalie made it home today. Her blood count is still down a bit but she is doing good. She has a Dr. appointment tomorrow to check her blood count but all is good right now. She came home at 18.25" and weighs 5lbs 3.8 oz.
Wonderful news. She was eating 20cc last night then today going to up her to 30 then hopefully 40 by tonight. She pooped and it didnt seem to have any blood in it. Also they are going to take her IV out and take her out of the isolette too. We are so thankful that she is doing so well. Hopefully she continues on this path. Also she hit the big 5lbs mark too!!!
11:50 am They are feeding my baby!!! She gobbled down 10cc. They are just starting her at 10cc for now since her belly shrunk from not eating. They might up it more tonight. She still has her iv in till she gets eating more. Praise the Lord and hope she keeps getting better!
Talked to the nurse, baby is doing good was hungry last night but ok now. She did gain a little weight is up to 4lbs 15.2 oz. Going to spend the night tonight and hopefully she will be eating by then.
She has been sleeping which is good. Her weight has stayed the same since last night. Still be a few days before feeding her. No bloody stool so that's a good thing but she really hasn't pooped yet either. She was having more lab work done later this morning but x-ray show no infection. So praise the Lord for that.
Up for the day. She was doing ok. She didn't sleep last night but was sleeping when we got there. Her IV is now in her head and had a big tube in her nose going to her stomach to keep everything of it. She lost 1oz so she is at 4lbs 14.8oz We are still playing a wait and see game.They said about 7 days and they would try feeding her again slowly. She has not had any more bloody stool since last night. When I called tonight they put a little tube in her belly and took out the big one. Now they are saying about 4 days and they will try feeding her again. So from just what we know we thing maybe not this weekend but next weekend she will be home. Just all depends on how she does. It pretty much all up to her now.
Prayers are needed for little Natalie. She is up to 4lbs 15.8 oz. She was doing good but during the night they found blood in her stool. So they quit her feeding moved her up front so she can be watched and took an x-ray and blood culture. She has some fissures which are cracks around her rectum that are bleeding but they wouldn't produce that much blood so there is something else going on. Her x-ray don't show bleeding but they have started her on antibiotics just in case of infection. She still had blood in her stool when we left they really dont know what is going on. So we are playing a waiting game and she also had an apnea and brady this morning. We are thankful that she was still in the hospital when this happened but it will be at least 3 days before she comes home it all depends on all her labs and what they find out. Will be little while before we find out more but I will try to keep you all updated. Thanks for the prayers God Bless you all
