Milestone!!

 

 

Grace has started more randomly to drink water from this cup..

she even asks for it..(by signing 'more' or by pointing to it).

She drank 20 ml's yesterday..

and 60+ ml's (2 oz) today.. We are soo proud of her!!

 

And it sorta just happened.. we give her 'free water' via her gtube every few hours..

and I have always given her a little from the syringe into her mouth..

well the last week, she hasn't felt 100% & has wanted more & more from the syringe..

so yesterday I gave her some in this cup.. it comes out a little quicker than a sucking motion

cup.. so we hold it for her..but she's doing awesome with it..

 

Let's hope it's the beginning of something HUGE!!

 

 

 

 

She's not been feeling well in the last 24-48 hours..stayed home from school today

and hopefully will be okay to start back tomorrow..this week is the first week

that she is going all week.. Fridays too!!  Very exciting!!

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for keeping up!

 

love,

pattie & gary, Grace & maxwell
