June 9, 10am

2125 grams, up just 5. 2126=4lbs, 11oz

Last night kelly moved him from 3 hour regulated feedings to 'ad lib' which means he can eat whenever he wants and as much as he wants. So, little piglet ate every four hours, and doubled his intake. His regulated feedings were 40ml, last night he had 75ml in middle of night, and 80 this morning at 6. I see weight gain in his future.

Galina, his NP came by and reiterated that Ashton is ahead of the curve on everything but apnea. Today is day 0 on the 7 day countdown. One apnic episode last night. His sentence to this place is at this point based solely on apnea. If he can learn to breathe consistently he can come home.

Amie will feed him around 10 today (if and when he wakes) and again this afternoon.

All seems to be progressing well here.
