Preemies

We made it to 4lbs!!!

DD was born seven weeks, two days ago at 27w3d and 2lbs, 3oz.  Tonight she hit 4lbs, 1.2oz - woohoo!!!  Today was her second attempt at a bottle - neither has been very successful, but she'll catch on before we know it :-)

  • YAYYY!!!! Congratulations!!!

    It took my smaller twin about 7 or 8 weeks to hit 4 lb. It was a magic number for him - he came off O2 and started nippling all feeds the day he hit 4 lb.

    I hope the same is true for your little superstar! Come on chubby baby magic, do your thing!

  • yaaaaay thats awesome! girls always catch on to things really quickly, ask all the NICU nurses... they'll tell you their best patients are girls! not that I am biased or anything, being a female myself ;) 4 lbs is an important milestone, congrats to your DD!
  • My LO hit 3 lbs today, so we can be excited together.. :)
  • Congrats that is awesome! I know it seems like forever until they hit or even 4lbs but i promise once they hit 4 they start packing it on! my little guy went from 4lb to 4lb 15oz in 7 days! and they start to look all chubby and fill out! soo exciting!
  • congrats!!   we just hit four pounds too-it sounds like a weight for a baby now instead of a little bird. 
  • YAY!!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!

    My preemie girl just made it to 4 lbs yesterday too!

    BTW, I love that picture. I wish I had nice NICU pics like that.
