Day 507

Ava went to feeding clinic today. I was hoping for some new ideas how to feed Ava and we didn't get them. Basically they are afraid to feed her but we need to have her eat at least 3 spoonfuls before we can get a swallow study so everyone feels safe. They want to also talk with Lung Center to get clearance. We just need to work on her eating. I think I am going to try and give her cereal. Try it just like you would a normal baby and make it thicker.

The good news is that Physical therapy told me that Ava has grown developmentally in her fine motor skills from one month of skills to 12 months in skill level within a couple of weeks. It is so exciting to see what Ava can do. We still just need her to sit up completely and start putting her feet down.

Ava weighs 10.6 kg = 23.37 pounds. Length 74 cm = 29 1/4".

Thanking God for Ava's growth and praying for help with her feeding and for her to stop gagging...
