The nurses take new measurements on Sunday nights and I got updates for each baby today!
William measured 15 1/2" long and he now weighs 2 lb, 10.7 oz. He is getting 24 cc's each feeding (30 cc's = 1 oz) and is fed every 3 hours. He gets extra protein with each feeding and gets additional iron & vitamins each day. William will get a follow up echo on his heart in 3 more weeks to take another look at his PDA. The expectation is that the PDA will have closed on its own at that point.
Ryan is 15" long and weighs 2 lb, 12.6 oz. He is getting 26 cc's every 3 hours and also gets protein with each feeding and iron and vitamins once a day. He will have another cranial ultrasound on Wednesday to take a look at the bleeding in his head. We continue to pray that this will clear up and ease our worries!
Stokes is 15 1/4" long and weighs 2 lb, 14.5 oz. He is getting 26 cc's every 3 hours.
Today at the NICU I got to do kangaroo care with William and witness a bath for Ryan. All three babies looked great and were so sweet for their mom!
Sweet Katie - thank you so much for all of the updates! You and all of your precious boys will continue to be in our prayers!! Special prayers for Ryan's test on Wednesday. I love you so much.
