Brothers




Hi Brothers!












We had a good day at the NICU today. Brock is still eating all 8 meals from a bottle and doing really well. He is taking down 60-80 cc's a meal even though he is only required to take down 44. When we nursed today he got 30 from me and we did 40 in the bottle. Well done!

Christian is eating 29 cc's today and is moving up one cc every other feeding. His cannula air was decreased a little and he seemed ok with it today. If he has a good weekend we might try to bottle feed him again on Monday... we will see. The nurses were not sure his lungs were quite up for it yet.
Both boys lost a couple of ounces in their weigh in last night. Brock, 4 pounds 13.5oz and Christian 4 pounds, 6 oz. The nurses decided that Brock could be unplugged and brought to brother for a photo shoot today. Aren't they just darling!! I have a feeling I will have my hands full for awhile :)
