April 25, 2010 - Part II

A few quick updates: Due to some recent diarrhea attacks, Tenley's diaper rash is back, along with some bleeding from her phisher due to the increase in bowel movements. She had some "air out" time last night for the rash so hopefully that helped out. The official weight for Tenley is 5lbs 3ozs!!! YAY!!! She hit the 5lb mark just in time for her 40 week due date yesterday. Her feeds have now been increased to 45 CCs and they are strongly encouraging that she has a pacifier in her mouth when she is tube fed to help her learn that a full belly happens when she makes the sucking gestures.

Will is up to 50CCs of milk...his weigh-in was 6lbs!! The rash on his belly and head are much better - skin-friendly detergent seems to be helping - however he will have the rash on his skin where his leads are until he can be discharged. They are slowly working with him on being more responsive to the sound of bells and/or rattles due to the results from the developmental study the other day.
