Harli has been doing very well. She continues to have her few episodes throughout the day and night, most of those episodes are very quick and do not require stimulation. The past couple days the doctor and nurse practitioner have not made any big changes. The only change to speak of is they continue to weight adjust her milk, meaning when she gains weight they raise the amount of milk she is getting. She continues to grow and at this point Harli weighs 4lbs 13ozs. I was not able to be out here for a few nights this week due to construction on the house and I could not get over the changes which she has made. She is starting to look more and more like a new born, even though she still has a long way to go to catch up with their weight.
The doctor and nurse practitioner continue to have Blair attempt breast feeding. Some days go smoother than others, but we are trying to stay positive and keep telling ourselves that it will happen when she is ready. She seems to have the whole suck, swallow, breathe portion of the breast feeding down its just trying to get her to keep doing it for more than just a minute.
Hard to imagine my wedding ring once fit around her arm!
The picture on the left was a mold of Harli's hand when she was a month old, the one on the right was done at two months old. She is getting big!
Our nurse and Blair gave Harli a bath earlier this week.
Looks like she is thinking.
"Wait patiently for me, and I will hear your cry." Psalm 40:1
