We have made it on to the growth curve at the 25th percentile in height and weight. We are all very happy that we have had stable growth since we left the NICU. Kalista has the typical baby chubs and sports it very well. She was measured and weighed this morning at her nutrition appointment. It looks like we are staying on the same feeding regimen for now, but have a little freedom when it comes to condensing her feed times during the day. Our goal is to condense her down to 30 minutes instead of the current hour long eating sessions. In the long run, when she starts to move and crawl, we will have a little bit more freedom to let her roam without her feeding tube hooked up. Ideally, we hope she will be eating by mouth and can forget about tube feedings. We're always keeping our fingers crossed.
