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 57 - 1/29/12

Day 57...

Another good day at the NICU. However, we are disappointed that they did not make any of the moves with Davis and Lilly today. All the RNs and NPs who work with Lilly and Davis think they are ready for less breathing support. However, we have to make sure the neonatologist on duty that day is ok with it, too. The regular neonatologist (one that is more familiar with our kids) is back tomorrow... hopefully she will allow the nurses to make the changes.

Weigh in time... Davis weighs 3 pounds and 15.3 ounces!!! Less than an ounce from hitting the 4 pound milestone!!! Lilly lost an pounce and weighs 3 pounds and 6 ounces.
