My Not so Fun Week :-)

It's hard to stay positive when you are so exhausted and stressed, but you are giving Gunner the best of chances and he's hanging in there!

Thanks Brigitte! Hopefully, he will hang in long enough to grow into a big, strong, boy!

They are all simply beautiful! I am praying for you and Gunner... if you recall, three times in the first five weeks of Kimi's life I was convinced I was going to lose her, but each time she miraculously pulled through and is now a spoiled, bratty 10 week old! Hang in there, you're doing a fantastic job!!!

Thanks Patti! Now that you mention it, I do remember, so that makes me more hopeful! And he did much better with this feeding, so I think 5-6 cc every 3-4 hours may do it.

Goooooo Gunner! He's obviously got the best care possible so I'm feeling positive. They are ALL adorable

Thanks DChap - I hope so...the three chubs have an attitude and the girlie is the worst diva...bites her brothers, is climbing on everything and strutting around

We are pulling for you and that little ink spot!

That sounds about right. Senna is getting 4 CCs every 3-4 hours (I've just moved him to 4, but am still kinda leery of such long times in between feeding). Up until 8 ounces- they typically need 1 cc per ounce. After 8 ounces- which by then, hopefully you are not feeding, you go up to 1.5 cc per ounce.

Gunner is a fighters name... There`s a reason that was the name he won! Hugs from NC!!
