Continued Progress

Daniel continues to be recovering from his ex-re-intubation. His O2 (~30), rate (18) and pressure (17) continue to go down and he is up to 7ccs of milk/2 hours which should prevent him from needing further IVs. He also appears to be stable on his weight (800gm) and hopefully will be back to gaining soon.

Sofia has gained lots of weight (actually is more than her brother at 820gm)! but continues to be a bit high on O2 postop (~40%) and to me still not completely herself. Her pressure still hasn't changed for a while at 19 (and her rate is back down to 22) so she needs to grow and do better with her lungs. She's up to 4ccs / 2 hours on the milk and that really needs to ramp up but for now she's getting most of her nutrition from her pic line.

Mommy and Daddy were able to cuddle Daniel some yesterday (we didn't think he could deal with a full kangaroo) and will hopefully do more w/ the kids today.
