Today was a good day in the NICU

Hi- We had a good day in the NICU. Christian got a little pedia light (sp?) in his tummy and will get that all day. If all goes well then tomorrow they will try some milk. He looked well today with good color and was wiggling and moving around. He got a water pill to help him lose some fluid in his hands and feet. He is still on CPAP and was doing pretty well on his air.

Brock was doing well also. He was moved to 40cc's of milk fortified to 24 calories. I got to feed him today and he did really well and took down 35 of the 40 cc's. Apparently his feeding last night went well also and he took down 36cc's which is great! We will do 2 feedings a day until he can complete both of them with no problems and then move to three etc. This was my first time to feed a little baby and I have to say it went pretty well!
