Kymani's Progress For 6/25 and 6/26
Every day Kymani gets a little bigger and stronger, which is very good. She gained 20 grams as of the 25th and another 50 as of the 26th. That puts her 1680 grams! She is getting closer to the 1800 she needs to reach to be in an open crib.
Guess what else she did today? She actually rooted really well and then latched on and suckled for a few minutes. In between, when she lost it, she actually got mad and found it again. That is HUGE for a baby this young! She really is trying her hardest to go home soon.
What a fighter!
Grandma Jeanne, Gary, Aja, and Nathan also came to visit on the 25th. She slept a lot of that time. But we're glad they got to visit. In addition to seeing Kymani, they also brought by some of her stuff that we left at the house (like clothing and her Graco Snug Ride car seat), as well as some new things that Grandma Rowell sent.
Since she can wear clothes now, we all wanted to make sure she had plenty. A lot of it is big on her, including some of the preemie stuff. But she is growing quickly, so that's okay.
Please continue to send positive vibes that Kymani continues to progress well and can go home soon. It must be working. Enjoy the two slideshows below. We hope they will give you lots of smiles in return for all of your good thoughts.
