February 26th - March 3rd

Tuesday Feb. 26th
Cadynce lost an ounce overnight, so she is back at 1 lb 7 oz. This is typical, so we were not too concerned. Everything else was good today.

Wednesday Feb. 27th
Cadynce stayed the same weight, and no other changes were made today.

Thursday Feb. 28th
It is hard to believe that 4 WEEKS AGO I was admitted to the hospital! The past weeks have flown by, and Cadynce has been a star in the NICU. We are so happy that everything is going so well with her. No changes in her feedings or weight today.

Friday March 1st
OUR CADYBUG IS 1 MONTH OLD TODAY! It is still unbelievable how fast time has gone by. Mommy kangarooed with her today, and the nurse put up a cupcake decoration with new footprints to celebrate 1 month! The doctor changed her feedings to include 2 high calorie formula feedings a day. This should help her to gain weight a little faster. A brain ultrasound will be done within the next few days to check for any bleeding on the brain. They previously did this at 7 days old, and found minimal (Grade 1 on scale of 1 to 4) hemoraging. 

Saturday March 2nd
Cadynce had a good day with no issues. She was just resting up for all of the visitors coming on Sunday! The doctor did increase her formula feedings to every-other feeding. They are really trying to fatten her up!

Sunday March 3rd
Jason and his mom went to visit Cadynce mid-morning. She was up to 1 lb 9 oz! WOO HOO, we finally made it over the birth weight hump!!! There's no looking (or falling, LOL) back now! Shortly after Jason and his mom left, Nannie Cat and Poppa D went to visit. While they were there, great-grandmother, Granny Pat, showed up to see the pretty princess! The doctor increased her feedings to 14 cc's every 3 hours, and she still received the formula every other feeding.
