Today was one of the most moving experinces I have had yet with my babies. I was able to participate in what they call "Kangaroo Care". It is a skin to skin experience where the baby is placed directly on the parents chest. My body warmth holds his tempature while he is fed through his feeding tube. Logan was able to listen to my heart beat and be comforted by my smell. He was so content that during this time his vitals were perfect. We are hoping to have this same experience with Emmi tonight and Brody as soon as he is stable enough. This was powerful for me as well since I was able to produce more breast milk after this experience in one time pumping as I did for the past 3 days combined.
