It's hard keeping up with the updates when work is so busy. As an owner of my own company, it's a good thing to be busy though.



The babies have been doing really well lately. Adelaide has improved on her bottle feeding. She now weighs 6lbs! She's taking 3 bottles a day. Adelaide is still on nasal cannula and had her blood gas today. Her carbon dioxide levels were great. She also had her two week eye exam, which looked good.

Mattie is now 4lbs. 20z.! She was weaned off the SIPAP to the CPAP, and now to the nasal cannula in the last three days. It's great to see her face again. The SIPAP/CPAP has head gear and a big mask that covers a lot of their face. Her blood gas this morning was really good. The staff has been checking her carbon dioxide levels every time she moves off a machine. Her eye exam on Wednesday was good as well.

Andrew has weaned off the SIPAP and is on the CPAP. His next step is to move to nasal cannula. We're really happy for him. His carbon dioxide levels have been good since the move. He weighs 4lbs. 5oz. Andrew's eye exams went well on Wednesday too.
