Hospital Time!!
I know you all may be sick of this, but too bad!
We went down to the hospital again this evening. I got to spend some time with my boys! The nurse came and put them both on my lap and let me spend some time with them on my own! I didn’t get to Kangaroo, but it was nice just holding them…even if they were sleeping!! I enjoyed myself so much! Felt a little bad that Kevin and the boys were down in the lobby while I was there…for about 2 hours or so.
I was talking to their nurse tonight…right now they are in what is called an isolette (incubator), and she said they may try this weekend to go to an open crib! Which is a wonderful step! This means they are holding their body temperatures! Also they are going to up their feeds again (right now they are getting human fortified milk added to their breast milk to give them extra calories…we want them to gain weight…it’ll help them hold their temps). I’m so excited…The doctor came over and talked with em. He said that they were doing well and he wished all the other babies in the NICU would take notes from our boys. They are doing so well!! I said well, keep them over here so they can’t take after the other babies! LOL I was telling Kevin tonight that it always makes me feel better when the nurses and doctors tell me how well they are doing. And they aren’t just saying it either, they are so genuine and caring. Right now those nurses are my boys’ second mom!!
I feel…: grateful
