I finally got a bottle

Over the last few days our little Brie has been waking up looking for food. I had asked when she would start to get a bottle or be able to nurse the nurse told me that they usually start around 33-34 weeks. Well she is 33 weeks today. Last night she was looking all around right before the feeding. The nurse gave her a bottle and she finished her entire feeding that way. Now she is allowed to take one feeding per day from the bottle or the breast. So today I am going to try and nurse her for the first time. I hope things go well. They also started her on iron suppliments today and increased her feedings to 21 cc. They continue to fortify her feedings to give her more calories. Her weight today was 2 lbs 3.4 oz.
