Related: About this forumIf my digital scale is right, the baby gained around 1/2 oz today!
I just weighed her and the scale said 4 oz. And she's been making itty bitty teensy weensy biscuits on me, in her sleep.
It is amazing to watch such a tiny baby. Those tiny little claws are adorable.
I'm going to try and put her back on the heating pad for a while. My butt is getting numb!! And I'm thirsty.
Thanks for all of the reassurance and advice, today. Hopefully I will have a positive update, tomorrow.

Does your scale do metric? Shelly Roche, the woman who runs Tiny Kittens out of Vancouver BC, does the weights in grams - easier to see the smaller increments.
And she's kneading! That must be so precious.
