This is tired me...

doing the two hour thing with the kitten. We are holding steady at 84-86 grams. Grrr. I had him up to 88 grams and then he pooped.....and pooped....and pooped. It was epic and I'm glad he pooped because he hadn't in two days but now we are down to 86 grams again. At least this time I got 3 ml in him instead of just 2. Oy, time to go nap.

this made me giggle altho i'm sure it wasnt giggle inspiring at the time.

S'okay. I was giggling while he was pooping the poopy of doom!

Things are processing, which is good. it's not helping with the appetite though, which isn't good.

Eliminating is usually a good sign. I hope you're getting some good sleep between the feedings.

[fimbrethil]

I hope so. Not really. The insomnia is kicking my ass between feedings.

I'm sorry, but the image of epic kitten poop made me laugh.

Here's hoping that getting things moving is a sign of all-round system upgrades making him stronger and giving him a better shot at a long and happy life.

Sounds like when we brought Gabey home from the NICU. Nurse, bottle feed breast milk, weigh baby on special baby scale, change diaper. Obsess over fractions of ounces. Swell with pride when scale went up, followed immediately by massive diaper explosion.
