Kylie at 3 months

Kylie at 3 months

Sunday, June 6, 2010


Kyle needs your prayer.  We had our weigh-in last week and had the bad news of Kylie losing weight again.  Kylie is now 6 lbs 2 oz, which is down from 6 lbs 7 oz.  This of course has us concerned because she is already a very little girl and does not have a lot to lose as it is. 

We have started feeding Kylie formula (which we started a few weeks ago) and have increased the amount of formula we are giving her.  We still feed Kylie breast milk, which she is doing very well with.  Kylie also loves her veges (especially her green beans and carrots).  Kylie has also progressively gotten better at sucking on the bottle.  Kylie still cannot drink enough to sustain her, but this improvement is encouraging.

We are hoping that increasing Kylie's food intake is what she needs.  We hope that Kylie is just a little girl who is growing and we have been too conservative in the amounts we have been feeding her.  The scary possibility is that her body is shutting down and her body is not taking in nutrients from the food that we are feeding her. 

We are so proud of our little girl!!  She is so strong and is a true
fighter.  Thanks for all the love and prayers.
