Lilly and Davis' Story

Lilly Mae and Davis Anthony were born on Sunday, December 4th. They were born at 25 weeks and 5 days of gestation.

Lilly was born first at 9:56PM. She weighed 1 pound and 14 ounces and was 13.25 inches long. Her head was 24 cm in circumference (slightly smaller than a baseball).

Davis was born at 10:07PM... 11 minutes after his sister (something she'll never let him forget). He weighed 1 pound and 13 ounces. He was 13 inches long and had the same size head as his sister.

Both were taken to the NICU directly after delivery and are expected to be there until their original due date, March 12th (that's exactly 100 days in the NICU!)

Please keep these little ones in your thoughts and prayers and hopefully we will get to bring them home sooner!

Day 1 - 12/4/11

Lilly and Davis were born today! They spent their first night in the NICU and both required ventilators to breathe. Neither one will be fed today or tomorrow… gotta make sure everything is ok before they get some food. They both will get fluids, electrolytes and antibiotics delivered intravenously (through tubes inserted intheir umbilical cords. They both will also get medicine through the ventilator into their lungs to help them breath easier.
