May 18, 2008 - Hitting the Bottle

Evia continues to improve in taking milk from a bottle. During her noon feeding, she finished an entire 40 ml bottle on her own. She is going to get a second bottle at midnight. Hopefully, she will be able to finish it, too. Evia also has figured out her pacifier. We had been working some with her with the pacifier but she couldn't really suck on it or keep it in her mouth. Today, we gave her the pacifier and she could hold it herself. She went after it for about half an hour. Randy and I will be giving her bottles tomorrow. We need to practice giving her bottle so we can do it when we get home. Here is a picture of Evia taking the first bottle she finished. The nurse gave me the bottle to keep.


Evia looking cute.
