Today the nurses took Emmerson out of her incubator and put her into an open crib as well. So far, after 8 hours, she has held her temperature. This is very good news! We are keeping our fingers crossed that she will continue to be successful. Brody is still in an open crib and has passed the 24 hour test! YEAH Brody!!! The nurse even sent his incubator out of the room today. Logan will be next. I am hoping that they will give him another try in the next couple of days. They are waiting until he gains a little more weight. Speaking of weight...as of last night, Logan was 1515 grams or 3lbs. 5 oz. Emmerson was 1770 grams or 3 lbs. 14.5 oz. and Brody was 2020 grams or 4 lbs. 7 oz. He broke the 2000 gram mark! These are great weight gains and the doctors and nurses are all very pleased, as are we! They will be weighed in again at midnight and hopefully they will have gained even more. Everyone continues to tolerate their feeds and is doing very well. Breastfeeding has its good days and bad, but again, since we are expecting very little, they are still surpassing our expectations! Here is a picture of Brody and Logan snuggling on Mommy's lap after being at the breast. It is one of Mommy's favorite times of the day...Friday, July 20, 2007
