Will should hopefully get his EEG results back tomorrow, but for now he is officially free of the EEG and all its wires. Mom reports that Will looked exceptionally cute today. He's weighing in at 2 lbs 9 oz and started back up with 4CCs of milk today. They will increase his milk every 12 hours by 4CCs until he's back up to 18CCs. Mom was about to do kangaroo care today but then a new baby "checked-in" to his room in the spot next to him so it was just bad timing. He had his first physical therapy session today...we believe all the preemies get this...but it basically consists of moving the limbs around and getting things moving. They took his catscan today (early...usually on Mondays) due to all the seizure activity he's been having, just to be on the safe side. His spinal fluid pre-lim tests are still negative and his random twitching has definitely decreased.
Tenley is having a little bit of trouble gaining weight - still roughly 2 lbs 1 oz. Even after being on the full dose of milk for four days or so, she just moves around so much that she burns off all the food. They increased her milk to 18CCs so hopefully this will help. Mom got to have kangaroo care with her today, during which she would randomly grunt at her Mom, most likely showing her dislike for having the CPAP head-gear-apparatus.
