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 34 - 1/6/12

Day 34...

Lindsey had surgery today and everything went well. She is supposed to be on bed rest the rest of the day, so will be day 2 of us not visiting the kids in the NICU ("yes dear, of course I'll get you another drink... this is the 7th thing you've asked for in the last hour, are you sure your not taking advantage of the situation?"). We should be able to go back tomorrow... woohoo, we really miss our kids and can't wait to see them!

We talked to the nurses throughout the day and both kids are doing well. They are increasing Lilly's feeds to 25 ml every three hours. Davis is staying the same for now.

Weigh in... Lilly weighed in at 2 pounds and 11 ounces and Davis is up to 2 pounds and 9 ounces.
