At the 1 week birthday, everyone is doing well. The babies are back to their birth weight (plus a little). They all lose water weight for the first few days, but we are headed in the right direction. Cambria continues to do well. She is learning to feed from the bottle, but the NICU staff are careful not to overdo it.
Aegean continues to recover from the NEC. He seems to be responding to the antibiotics, and the doctors think he will start normal feeding on Monday. Laura said he was restless while she was there until he finally got to cuddle Mommy. He calmed right down and stayed with her until we had to leave.
Mommy saw Dr. Grossman, who is back from his vacation.
He says she is recoverying perfectly. He missed Laura's first visit to the hospital for cramping, second visit to the hospital for pre-term labor, and the third visit to the hospital for the delivery. It was good to hear he doesn't think there are any more hospital visits for him to miss.
Excellent photo. Glad to see Aegean is responding to Mom and doing well against the NEC. Good photo of all the hair Dianne told me about.
