Today Cooper took his largest amount of food through his bottle to date... 2.5 ounces! I'm sure most parents don't think twice about their child finishing a bottle, but for Cooper, it is something to celebrate.
While he is taking more of his feeds through the bottle and we're having to put less through his feeding tube, he rarely finishes an entire bottle, and the most he's taken previously is about 2 ounces. Having a preemie baby has taught me a valuable lesson about celebrating small victories each day.
"No matter our circumstances, no matter our challenges or trials, there is something in each day to embrace and cherish. There is something in each day that can bring gratitude and joy if only we will see and appreciate it." -Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Yay one step closer to buying milk in the 2 gallon packs at Costco! Lol
