Well, the daily weight loss continued again last night, but again it was small. She lost another 10 grams and is now 680 grams. It may seem discouraging, but we aren't worried. The weekly weight is more important than the day-to-day, and Sarah has been steadily gaining about 80-100 grams every week. This week shouldn't be any different.
And, we know where the weight went. She had three big #2's last night, and that accounts for a lot of grams.
Sarah is still doing well on 1 liter of pressure. Despite her size, she is now one of the healthiest babies in the NICU. We're so happy! She's now on 2-1 care, meaning she shares her nurse with another baby. And that's great, because it means when she gets home, mom should be able to handle all the care by herself, right?
On a side note, one of the nurses asked me if I knew any Jewish boys for a nice lawyer in New York, for one of her son's friends. I asked her "She can't find a Jewish boy in New York?! Where is she looking?" And it was one of the Korean nurses that was asking! I was very confused...

Why don't you ask one of the nice nurses if they know any doctors to set your sister up with.
I second that! Or maybe better, a male nurse! Nurses are nice people, too!
Good news on the oxygen, Rog. Glad to hear she is the healthiest baby in the NICU; and sorry to hear it for the other babies sakes!
Love to the terific threesome.
Well, if the nurse can work on getting Sarah some free cable TV (shes getting tired of the basic channels I heard) I would be happy to find her a nice, hot, Jewish boy in NY. Let's negotiate.
It was so nice to see Sarah tonight! She was the most alert and awake I've seen her yet!
