We had some good news today, McKenzie is finally back above four pounds! This was a great milestone that I have been looking forward too. Unfortunately, she also had another case of Bradycardia Sunday afternoon (but none on Monday). That means her seven day clock has reset such that she can't come home any earlier than next Sunday.
Susana was able to make it in to see the kids twice today, spending a good amount of time each time. She also talked to the Neonatologist on duty. This doctor gave us mixed signals. On the one hand he said that both girls are doing very well, but then he went on to say that it may be three weeks before they come home.
Unfortunately, I wasn't there to ask him what he meant by that, because up to this point all the docs have been saying probably around 35 weeks. Needless to say we want the girls home, but we also want them to get the 24/7 care that they need...
Susana also got a chance to sit down with the lactation consultant who helped her out today and both girls actually did pretty well breastfeeding and that is another good sign.
As for the pictures, today. I decided to take some closeups of the girls and put them in a collage, as well as get Susana with each of them.
