Every Tuesday while you're in the hospital, we'll take a picture with your pug so that everyone can see how much you are growing!
You are now 16 inches long, and you weigh 4lbs 7oz!
Your seventeenth week was another good week! You've finally made it all the way to 2000 grams, which means you are big enough to come home! All you need to do is learn how to eat everything from your bottle.
Your mommy is getting much stronger and is able to spend more and more time with you every day. You continue to eat more from the bottle every day as well, and we can see how much you are changing and growing.
In the next week, we're praying that all of your final checks and tests show that you have developed just like you're supposed to, and that you will continue to learn how to eat more and more from your bottle!
We love you!

Gwyneth's pug IS shrinking, which can only mean that she is growing!!! What a blessing to watch. Pig Out little girl and empty those bottles so you can be cleared to go home with mommy and daddy. Praising God that you are doing so good Tricia. Your pictures are amazing, always that beautiful smile of yours shining through. God is so good.

Such continuing great news!! Thanks for sharing! Pics, as usual, are adorable!
ReplyDeleteHappy 17 weeks! Thanks for the update!
ReplyDeleteShe is getting so big. What a great idea you had to start the pictures with the pug. Everytime I see a pug I will think of "White Rose Blooming"
Speaking of pugs, how is Meka? I hope she is enjoying her little vacation away from home.
So happy to hear Tricia is getting stronger and stronger!!
I will be praying for Gwyneth that all checks and test are perfect, along with learning how to eat every drop from her bottle.
Looking so forward to the day Gwyneth goes home!
Have a wonderful day.
That pug keeps getting smaller and smaller. Yay Gwyneth! I am so glad she is doing so well. And that is great about Trish! Enjoy your sweet little one.
ReplyDeleteJust a quick question. How often does Gwyneth wake up through the night?
It looks like we're using the toy pug again! She is getting so big! What a wonderful gift for mothers day. A healthy baby who might be coming home in the upcoming week. yay! Congratulations and thanks for the update Nate.
ReplyDeleteThanks, as always, for your updates. Such sweet pictures of your baby girl. Still praying in Charlotte!
ReplyDeleteNate, Tricia, and (of course) Gwyneth,
ReplyDeleteI am touch and continue to be amazed by your amazing story! I am a NICU nurse at the Nebraska Medical Center and find that when parents and patients post their stories, it's a great way into relating to their point of view and how they view their treatment/babe's development. You are so lucky to have such a wonderful team of nurses and doctors to help your girls grow big and strong and keep them healthy. I look forward to the day that you post that Tricia and yourself are taking that beautiful amazing girl home with you (with no O2, no feeding tubes, no lines!!!). I'm sure one of the happiness moments of your life! Your family is in my thoughts and hopefully Gwyneth will be discharged very soon!!
I can't believe how much she seems to change (I just see her through your pictures) every week. It really is amazing. She is actually getting a chubby little look about her!!! Who would have thought that the skinny little girl from a few weeks ago would have a double chin so soon! God is so good & that is evidenced to all of us in blogland through your story! I pray for continued GREAT news!!!!

When I see these photos of Gwyneth each week, I just praise God. She is such a beautiful miracle. She looks precious!

Watch out Pug! Gwyneth can squash you now!! ;)
ReplyDeleteShe looks soo good. My how she has grown. What a little miracle!
Mmuuuaahh Gwyneth!
God Bless you all

I bet that little pug toy becomes your daughter's security object!
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful!
I think you might be in trouble when she gets older with all the boys... everyone is going to love her... wait I think they already do! :)
ReplyDeleteGwyneth is starting to look more like Tricia. She's a nice combination of you both:) I love her cheeks.
ReplyDeleteGwyneth and Tricia are so beautiful. you do a great job capturing that beauty in pictures! What a great dad/husband.
ReplyDeleteShe looks so big, yet I know she is so little still! I was hold our little 8 lb. Eliseo this morning trying to imagine that Gwyneth is still like half his size. I think those adorably kissable cheeks are deceptive :)
ReplyDeletelove and prayers every day,
The Lockwoods
she's getting so big! Great Photos:)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely amazing. God is GOOD!
ReplyDeleteAnd what a bloomer she is! What a miracle baby!
