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 :-)
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!
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!
