February 5, 2010 - Part II

Will and Tenley are finally in the same room!!!!!

They transferred Will to Tenley's room today...they aren't next to each other, there's one baby in between them, but they are at least in the same room now!!!!

Both had kangaroo care with Mom today and both are up to 12CCs of food every 3 hours. Mom and Dad will be snowed in at home tomorrow so they are glad they got to have kangaroo time with both of them today.

Will - When he's in a deep, deep sleep he pretty much utilizes the ventilator for all his breathing. When awake, he still relies on it heavily but does do his own breathing every now and again. The little guy is just worn out from the infection and from showing off on the CPAP and nasal oxygen. He got a culture today to check on the status of his infection and the preliminary reports showed no more sign of infection. Sounds like hopefully they caught it early enough.

Tenley - This fussy little girl is only calm during her kangaroo care. They took her off the pain med today and she was NOT a happy camper. She wiggled and complained long enough that the nurses decided she needed to go on a low dose of morphine. This finally calmed her down.
