Crunching the numbers...
Well, it would seem that the only thing really holding up Kayla coming home is weight gain. As of today, she is still 5 tiny grams down from what she was when she was admitted to TCH. In order for her to go home, she has to have an average of 10grams gain over the past week. Well tomorrow is a week...so that means she needs a BIG weight gain tonight in order to go home tomorrow. They are also going to run a blood test and a urinalysis to check for anemia and a urine infection. These are two things that can cause problems with weight gain. She's on 24 calorie formula (normal is 20 calories) so she "should" be gaining weight. Let's keep our fingers crossed!
