Day 63

Aerin is 9 weeks old today and weighs 4 pounds, 5.4 ounces. She breastfed for about 25 minutes. They give her 18 cc's through her tube after she nurses, just in case. Her crit is low (32), but she's reticking (creating more red blood cells) well all on her own, so she won't need any more transfusions. It's nice to have those behind us.

Don't forget, November 15th is Prematurity Awareness Day. You can find ways to show your support at the March of Dimes web site.
