Update Wednesday June 16

Good morning everyone! Sorry to miss a post yesterday. The Blog manager had to return to work and his assistant had a very busy day. :-) The Dr. says I am recovering well and will be able to leave the hospital tomorrow. This is great news, but I will be sad to leave the babies behind.

I was able to participate in touch time last night with the babies. It was really awesome to see the babies respond to me and it feels so good to be able to comfort them, The babies are quite famous in the NICU and known as the "feisty ones!" They continue to amaze the staff and were taken off minimal stimulation orders yesterday. We understand its a good sign to be fussy and asking for attention. Their breathing is remarkable according to the staff and we are working on their feedings now. They are getting breast milk feedings every 4 hours and IV nutrition 24 hours/day. They are tough little babies!

  3. WONDERFUL! So exciting to hear you are doing well enough to go home - and they are doing so great! PLEASE get rest while you can. I would be happy to drive you to/from the hospital this next week. Also, remember the NICU is just a phone call away and they are more than happy to talk with you and let you know how the babies are doing. Love to you all!
