Li'l Miss Piggy ; )

Last night Brooke weighed 3lb. 7.6oz.! Her feedings are still at 32cc's every 3 hours and she's doing pretty darn well with a bottle. The plan is for her to get at least one per shift. Yesterday total she had 4 (I got to give her 8pm one) and she finished 3 of them! The one I gave her, she didn't take about 10cc's out of it, so her nurse put the rest down her tube. She was very sleepy and just didn't want to wake up to eat, but she did pretty good. They have her down to 1L flow again....Wednesday she was at 1.5L and then yesterday they turned her down to 1L. Hopefully she can ditch the O2 soon. Or maybe she'll come home on it. She hasn't been having as many "episodes", either, so hopefully she's starting to outgrow them. She'll be 32 weeks gestation tomorrow and could potentially come home in 3 weeks! Here are some pics:
