DING DING DING!!!!!!! And we HAVE A WINNER!!!!!!!!!

Genie, I can't thank you enough!!! SHE TOOK IT!!! SHE LIKED IT!!!

She still acts like her mouth is very tender... but you're right... she hardly has to suckle at all with this!! Still gets the benefit of working those muscles and proper formation - - but I push the syringe when she starts to suckle... and it works beautifully!!!

She took about 2 cc's earlier this evening with just the syringe - so I was thrilled with that.... but it took forever and she got so tired and had to stop in between.

This nipple / syringe combo is PERFECT!!! She took another 2 cc's in just a few minutes and fell right back to sleep!!

I think we're on a little roll here guys.... THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!

Stools are still loose tonight - - and her lil' bum is raw from the diarreah so I have some A&D ointment on hand that I'm using for that... (hope that's alright to use!) Looks like it's helping a little already...

Praying we have some good days ahead for baby Emma!!!
