baby4us, That is SO AWESOME that you felt movement!!! You will enjoy that every day. Even when it wakes you at night...it's just incredible. Hailey and Jayden are doing well, thanks for asking! Hailey is still having trouble digesting her food but at such a small size, I'm told it's very normal. She's still on room air with some help in the way of pressure to open her lungs but again, all normal and improving all the time. Jayden is doing exceptionally well. He's been completely on room air with no help since day 2 and he's getting an increase in his feeds every 12 hours and tolerating it well. I changed a couple of the smallest diapers I've ever seen in my life!! I go to the nicu twice a day and just love being there. It's tough finding rides all the time since I'm not allowed to drive yet but my family has been wonderful about helping when they can. Yesterday was my birthday and the nurses let me hold both babies at once as a bday gift. Greatest gift I ever received! I"m still scared a lot but still believing that all will be well and it's helping. They are amazing and make me smile all the time. I'm feeling a bit better each day too and things are looking up!

Oh Karen.. Happy Birthday! That is so amazing.. what a great b-day present to hold your babies...
I am so happy they are doing well.. any idea when they may be able to come home.. I guess once Hailey is stabilized... but have they indicated when.. I can imagine it must be a bit exhausting to go to the NICU every day twice a day.. although I knowyou love it and wouldnt change it for the world...
Do you have any photos of the babies to post??? I'd love to see the little bundles!!! Good luck.. and so glad you can keep posting!

baby4us, I'm working on the photos. Unfortunately my computer is not letting us download any pictures from my digital camera. So, I had some pictures put onto CD's and the CD drive won't work either! Bad luck I guess. I just gave my daughter the CD's to take to a friend's house to have them downloaded then emailed to me so I'm hoping to have some soon. Thanks for asking!! Karen
