Collins had trouble regulating her body temperature while she had to be undressed for phototherapy. Now that we can dress her to stay warm, they allowed her to go back to an open crib. Here's the best news, though... if she can regulate her own temperature, Dr. Chen thinks they may discharge her tomorrow!!
Casen is still in his incubator to help him conserve energy & regulate his body temperature. He is making slow progress with feedings, but still takes the majority of feedings through his nasogastric tube. Dr. Chen is telling us at this point that he'll be in the NICU at least another week. We're hoping that we can progress with feedings well enough to get out early. We'll see how he does...
Both of the kids have also continued to gain weight. Collins now weighs 4 pounds 3.5 ounces; Casen now weighs 3 pounds 12.1 ounces.
One of our sweet friends from church hand-made this adorable diaper bag gift for the twins. Thanks, Deniece! I love it!
