January 19, 2011

The girls were doing okay yesterday.  Pearl had a few dips in her breathing and needed more oxygen a couple of times.  She was back down to 29% at 11 last night and doing okay.  Her blood sugar was a little elevated in the morning.  They adjusted her protein iv and that seemed to fix it.  She was fine the rest of the day.  She is up to 2 whole ml at her feedings!  She will be huge in no time!

Malorie had a dip in her oxygen as well which is rare but she came back up and was still on room air.  She was a little agitated because she has a little sore on her nose from her CPAP.  Once that got adjusted she was fine.  They increased her feedings to 7 ml yesterday and she seemed to do great with it. 
I got to hold Malorie yesterday.  This gives you some perspective as to how little they are.
