Saturday, March 13

We hope everyone is having a good start their weekend. We're not looking forward to losing an hour of sleep tonight, but the good news is that Tara is on Spring Break next week and will get some much needed rest.

Adelaide was held from bottle feeding for 48 hours. The staff also started her on an antacid in addition to the relux medicine. On Friday, she took a bottle twice in the morning with no problems, but struggled with her bottles in the afternoon. Today, the staff is bottle feeding her for every feeding, and she has done really well. We're hoping the trend will continue. She weighs 6lbs. 9oz.

Mattie is holding steady and doing well on nasal cannula. She takes a bottle every other feeding, and yesterday she completed the entire bottle for the first time. She did it again once today. Mattie weighs 4lbs. 14oz.

Andrew is alternating between CPAP and nasal cannula. He recovered after last weekend's drop. He definitely enjoys being on nasal cannula more than the CPAP. His oxygen intake is still high, but we're thankful he's not on ventilation. Andrew now weighs 5lbs. 2oz.

Praise
Adelaide has taken all her bottles today with no issues.
Mattie is improving on her bottles.
Andrew read his first book today.
Spring Break for Tara.

Prayer
Adelaide would continue to do well on the bottle.
Mattie would wean off nasal cannula.
They're getting EKGs this week to check their hearts. Pray the results are good.
Andrew's oxygen needs would lower.
