Busy day for the twins today vistor-wise. Bills parents arrived in the morning for a few hours, then Becky and I stayed from 11 - 4. At 4:00 Grandma Lewis and Bill were arriving for their visit.
Today was my last day seeing the twins until the baby shower weekend (yes, its still on!). I have to say, I had a pretty good send off. Becky and I were both able to touch both of their heads and legs/feet which calmed both of their stats. Its so awesome feeling their toes wiggle in the palm of your hand.
Tenley - Is currently off the billi light so we could see her beautiful face again. She is digesting her milk quite nicely. The last feeding she digested .7 CCs of the 1CC amount given. Her breathing levels are consistant .. again, slow and steady for her. They attempted to put in her pic-line today (to avoid having so many needle sticks every day) but it didnt take so they are trying another side tonight.
Will - Was also off the billi light so we could see his handsome face once again as well. His blood pressure rates were running really low so he got put back on Dopamine which has helped to stablize his rate at this point. They lowered his breathing levels last night due to good numbers however in the morning was put back up to the higher level. By the time we left this evening, he was going to get dropped back down again to a more reasonable rate. So, until his numbers get more stable, they will not be attempting any milk feeding. He also had an EKG to determine if there was any seizure activity and it was found that he didnt have any such activity...yay! His overall brain functioning was lower but that could be due to the seizure medication. They will take another EKG at some point after the seizure medication is out of his system.
