went to the growth and nutrition lab yesterday and

the doc told us to stop fortifying!!!!!  he was very please with her 'storage tank' - the chunky fat on her bottom and thighs.  her head has caught up on the chart, her length is getting there and her weight will follow after her length.  beyond adding a little olive oil and butter to her solid foods, there is nothing we need to do but just enjoy the little nugget!  I am so relieved - a little nervous about ditching about 150/day right off the bat, but the doctor is confident that she'll self regulate by drinking more BM or eating more solids.
