January 24

Sorry it has been a few days but it has been a crazy weekend! 

Yesterday, Malorie was at 24% oxygen and doing well on her CPAP.  She is up to 3lbs. 4 oz.  Her poor little tummy is distended though but they think it is due to the air from the CPAP.    I held her for a long time yesterday and that seemed to help get some air out of her tummy.  We will see if that helps again today.  She is doing great on her feedings and is up to 25 ml every three hours.  She is sick of having her CPAP in her nose and ripped it out as her nurse was coming to the phone this morning when I called.  I hope this isn't the start to her fighting for attention!

Pearl is up to 2lbs. 7 oz. and is eating 14 ml every three hours.  She has been around 28% oxygen and has had just a couple of spells.  They usually are with her cares as she doesn't like to be bothered when she is sleeping.  Sounds familiar. 

 Miss Pearl is enjoying some tummy time.  She has on her little vest which is super cute!  Her bow kept falling off her hat so she is going to have to wait to wear her accessories. 
Malorie also is liking her tummy time.  I think it makes it feel better!  She keeps her bow by her pillow so she can look at it. 

Thank you for all them emails.  I'm sorry if I haven't replied yet but time is hard to come by these days.  It is a good day if I have showered and brushed my teeth!  Hopefully this too will get better when the girls come home.  I know Miles is excited for that day so that his mom and dad will be around more often.

  2. Yeah, I'm so happy for the new post. I've been thinking about you all a lot.
    It sounds like both girls are growing and doing well.
    How are you feeling? Is Miles sleeping any better?
    Big hug to you!
