This morning seems to be the same as yesterday, Allison is not tolerating her feed right now. Her afternoon yesterday seemed to be fine but overnight she started to have trouble with the feed again. Night always seems to be worse for our little peanut…I wonder why?
The nutritionist spoke with us this morning about going back to a continuous feed for Ali to try to get her calorie intake up. This is not really an option for us right now because we are hoping take her home on the feeding tube and with a toddler at home to care for and activities to get too I can’t have a child who literally eats 24 hours a day. In the end we will do what’s best for Ali but going to continuous feeds seems like a huge step in the wrong direction to Jason and I and we would rather just give Ali another day or two to adjust to this feed and then keep on working on compressing the time required for her to take in her required volume.
Ali did gain a tiny bit of weight yesterday! She now exceeds her birth weight!!!!!!!!!
