We're showing off our TU hats! Go TU!! Remember how big they were on us before????
We weigh 6lbs 3oz and 5lbs 12.5oz. Ethan is bottle feeding all of his feeds and even breastfeeding like a champ. His next step is to decrease the amount of calories in his formula from 24kcal/oz to 22kcal/oz and see if he continues to gain weight accordingly.
Here's Dad- he's feeding his first bottle ever to his boys! Go DAD!
Kian is working on nippling 6 bottles per day and only 2 tube feeds. He still has an uncoordinated suck and it takes him more than the allotted amount of time (30 minutes) to get down 2oz of milk. Therefore, he stays at that step until he masters it. Mom & Dad are getting severely anxious and our patients are wearing thin, but we keep being reminded that "they would still be in utero" and wouldn't be doing these things anyway.
We would be 36wks 3days today
instead today we are 2mo old.
We've had our 2 month shots already and we took them like champs. Only a few whimpers and then all smiles!
Still- a discharge is in sight for Ethan. No date given yet. We will let you know when that happens.
It's hard to believe it's been two months already! The Boys look amazing. Hugs and love.
