Day 50... half way through our NICU journey. We've driven well over 3,000 miles traveling to and from the hospital and spent well over 200 hours sweating in a hot NICU to hang out with our kids, and we're finally half way done! Only 50 days to go, then we get to bring our 2 little angles home!
Lindsey must have sneezed on me when I wasn't paying attention... now we are both sick :( So, we will not be visiting the NICU today. However, we did call several times and got a few updates. Lilly had her blood count and blood gases tested today. Her blood count is 25, which would usually require a blood transfusion. However, her retic (pretty sure I'm spelling that wrong...) is high meaning her body is making a lot of her own red blood cells. The nurses will wait and see how Lilly is tomorrow before they decide if they want to give her a transfusion.
Davis is doing well. Just hanging out, growing and getting stronger.
Weigh in time... Davis gained another ounce, woohoo!!! He is now 3 pounds and 6 ounces! Lilly also gained an ounce, bringing her to 2 pounds and 15 ounces! Hopefully tomorrow is the day I can say both kids are over 3 pounds! Today was also measurement day. Both kids are now 15.25 inches long!
