Emma wide awake after her bath
Adalyn wide awake after her bath
I got to give both of the girlies baths today, I am getting much better at it. Although they may disagree. Durring the baths the girls complained a little bit, but both were wide awake which I loved. It was especially fun to see Emma that way because we have not seen her that alert before.
Emma had a bit of a rough day today. She has been having more alarms and has also been spitting up more again. We are not sure what the cause is. It could be because they increased her feedings to 15 mL every 3 hours, it could be because she is refluxing, it could be that she is being a preemie and is just having a bad day. All we know is that we are praying that whatever the cause is that God help Emma to stop spitting up so much and to have less alarms. On the up side despite the spitting up Emma has still gained weight over the past 24 hours. Her weight tonight was 2 lbs 12 oz (1250 grams).
Adalyn had a little bit of a rough night last night in terms of alarms. She is still doing better with her spitting up. Because of her increased alarms last night the doctors put her back on CPAP. Big suprise :) Durring the day today she had fewer alarms and very minimal spit up. Pray that this continues for Adalyn. Her weight tonight was 2 lbs 12 oz (1240 grams).
Please continue to pray for the girls to have less alarms, tolerate their feedings, grow and develop, and that God protect them from NEC and other infections. Please also continue to pray for Dave and I to be able to cope when the girls have bad days and to remember that God is in control and to continue to trust in Him.
Love all your updates Abi and Dave. I continue praying fervently for you and your girls. They are precious gifts and how cool to be able to see God grow them up daily!! It is so hard to remember that He is in control but we all must cling to the hope that only Jesus can give.
ReplyDeleteJust a question, are they fraternal or identical?
