Here is the update with all the kiddos:
Jace was at 3.0 liters and 28% oxygen, he was down from yesterday so we dont know if the diuretics are working or if he is just getting better as hes getting older? Whatever the reason is we thank God for the progress! Hes still getting the 36ml of breast milk and the 24 calories of fortifier. He lost 65 grams today so he is back to weighing 3lbs 13oz. He had another ultrasound today to follow up on his ventricles and the grade 2 bleeding in his brain and the bleeding is continuing to resolve, which is awesome! and the ventricles are still the same, so we just continue to pray that they stay the same or get smaller! We were going to put Liam in the open crib with Stella last night but he could never fully keep his temperature up so they decided to put him and Jace together in the same incubator until one of them can go in with Stella in the open crib or both of them...It was the cutest thing ever, here is a pic!
Liam is still on room air. He went up to 38ml of milk with the 24 calories of fortifier. Later in the day after the bath and sharing a incubator with Jace I got to do skin to skin with both of the boys. Liam lost 40grams and now weighs 3lbs 15oz. I put Liams diaper on too loose so the pee came out of his diaper so we had to change him already, lol here is a picture of him in his onesie. Jace had to wear warmer clothes with a extra blanket and because Liam is almost ready to go in a open crib he was fine just wearing a onesie and a blanket over him and both of there temps stayed good that way....
Stella is still on room air. She gained 50grams so she now weighs 4lbs 13oz! She is drinking 46ml of milk still with the 24 calories of fortifier. We tried breast feeding again today and she just wanted to fall asleep, so we tried the bottle and she drank a little but still just wanted to fall asleep, lol so we still have to learn to do that before we can go home...Here is a picture of her after her bath today in her crib...
