Hope's 19th Day

It has been another great day for Hope. She seems to be getting the hang of eating. She did a nice job all day today with her feedings. She nursed really well at one feeding, and took the remainder of her feedings today from a bottle. She continues to work on her pacing. She seems to either eat too quickly or eat at an extremely slow rate. She also has a tendency to be really worn out at some of her middle of the night feedings. This is when the decision is made for her to be tube fed. We are hoping that we can get through the night tonight without the need for any tube feedings!
