OMG Lexi took 3 sucks of milk today from a bottle!!There must be something in the air in Austria lol they havent even started therapy yet!! Oh im so pleased, she is having loads of fun with the food, she hasnt sucked any since but i am squeezing it into her mouth when we are playing and she is defo swallowing small amounts! She spit the majority out but i can see her throat and some is going down. This is such a massive acheivement for her im so pleased!
For her lunch she had set out on a tray, Custard, Soup, Mash and Gravy, Carrots and swede and some kind of German Paste i think all in separate bowls. She lets me put them all on her lips to taste and then she plays with the rest but this is all in the right direction for her. I am really looking forward to tommorrow to have the plan and to start this all off!! I think she is going to respond really well. She loves the nurses and their accents shes stares and smiles loads at them :) soo cute! We went out yesterday in to the city it was so nice we rode on a Tram for the 1st time, yes Shauna it was good, it was the same as London Underground but not underground and not so fast! I couldnt believe that they just ride around the road like cars.! Its like being in town and a train just beeping coming past lol! Crazy! It is a real nice city we went ot the top of a mountain and looked down all over Austria (or maybe just Graz) that was nice..! We are an hour ahead of normal time here. The snow is falling really thick and fast 2day woo hoo cant wait to see everything white :) Last year apparently they had a metre and a half thick of snow!!! Lexi has lost 20 grams so far, not alot but it is seeing as its only a matter of days! She gets weighed every morning at the same time naked so its a true reading. She has slept quite alot today and been a little unsettled but still good as gold! Im not sure what the plan is with her milk for 2moro will find out as will be a big ward round with all the docs..Cant wait! today she has missed breakfast and had 50mls of milk and 40mls of water 3 times compared to her usual 125mls milk and 180 mls water 4 times a day! She is in the room with Dale now playing with a bottle of milk, we have stayed in all day it is freezing out, just going to do the washing is an outing in itself lol.. The hospital grounds are prob the same size of bridgend town!! Will update 2moro Love and miss everyone big kisses from Lexi x x x x x x
