Day 77 of Life - September 3rd

I'm proud to report on another quiet day for little Sha. Our piglet continues to improve on oral feeds and weight gain. He now weighs 2260 g (4.982 lb), as of last night. We're getting very close to the 5 lb mark now!!!

At his 3:00 feed, he took a full bottle (42 mL) from Pa and took another 14 mL by bottle from Ma at his 9:00 feed. Then he fell asleep and they tube fed him the rest...but overall, a very successful day for the little one. During the feeds, he didn't really desaturate at all, so he seems to be getting better on that aspect, as well.

Ma and Pa went to a movie last night...for the first time in quite awhile. It was nice for them to take some time together. Ma is now headed back to RMH and Pa has gone home for a nap, but plans to return to RMH tonight.
