Weight Graph

Noah has done well in the last few weeks we bought our own scales to save us trips to the hospital for his 2/7 weights got a real bargin off eBay. Below is the graph we use to plot on his weight. The pink line is the minimun amount of weight he is suppose to put on per day. So his starting weight was 1450grams and today should be 4180grams (min 30 grams a day is healthy range) His actual weight is the blue line which is 2685grams (1495 difference) he is still classed as failure to thrive. His NG tube is still in and he still requires 3x gavage feeds with extra calories in it.

Today was the first time since we have been home that he has put on more than the minimun amount. So proud of him. Will be seeing the neonates team on the 15th for a review and eyes done at the end of July. Physio in 8 weeks and cardio on the 7th Sept. Am hoping for the gavage to come out soon.
