Gradual Improvement...

The girls continue to improve every day. They keep on removing their own IV's which can be a problem if they are not staying hydrated. This is not the case, they continue to take their nutrition through the feeding tube inserted through their nose and have been tolerating their feedings well. It is a gradual increase in nutrition (about 2 - 4 ml/child/feeding cycle). They are fed about every 2 - 3 hours (standard). They also continue to pull out their feeding tubes (I can't imagine what if feels like, but it's probably not fun). My girls are very active when awake and definatly like being held by Mommy and Daddy. The nursing staff encourages us to hold them and interact. I have to admit, that is very soothing to hold my precious little baby girls.
