It's been one Week!
We just got back from an early morning visit and Charlotte is still doing well. They are increasing her food 1 ml every other feeding. She is tolerating most of the food but does have a few wet burps or has some left in her stomach from time to time. The nurses said this is nothing to be concerned about as she is tolerating the food overall. The only other change today is that they took the feeding tube out of her mouth and have now run it up her nose into her stomach. I know this doesn't sound too comfortable but apparently, it's better for her. They want to start giving her some oral stimulation so she can be ready to bottle feed and now they can start that without the feeding tube in her mouth. So now, Charlotte has been in the NICU one week. She has done really well in that week and we can only hope that the coming weeks go just as smoothly!!
