2 months, 1 day
Gestational Age: 37 weeks
All things are pretty good with the girls, we don't have a lot to post. They are both on the nasal cannula's all day. Eden is getting bolus feedings which means that she is on a schedule of multiple feedings per day. This will help her get acclimated to a schedule similar to what she will be doing at home. She is bottle feeding periodically and is doing well with that. The RN's say that they are both acting more like newborns with their "fussy" times. Reagan is still on continuous feedings because we are waiting for her lungs to get better and for her to require less respiratory support.
Reagan is 4 lbs, 13 oz
Eden is 2 lbs, 13 oz
We still do not know when they will come home, before they can make their trip to Blaine they will need to 1. breathe 100% on their own without the help of O2 and 2. take all of their feedings by bottle and finally a caveat to this 3. Eden has to be at least 4 lbs.
Thank you for all of your prayers, we truly appreciate it.
They look so cute!!! I'm so happy to hear they are doing so well. Hang in there..they'll be home before you know it. Lot's of prayers still going your way :)
ReplyDeleteMy boys were in the NICU for a fraction of the time (only 2 weeks), but reading this brought all those tears and memories back.
ReplyDeleteVery best wishes to your girls on their journey home. (I wouldn't wish the NICU on my worst enemy.) You guys are doing fantastic, and your daughter are beautiful!
