3 Days Old

Garrett is always hungry. The nurse said he demands to be fed first and she is hoping the doctor will approve increasing his food today. He seems to be a "feisty" boy- a word several nurses have used. At this point we like feisty, but this will be a new thing for us if it continues. His jaundice levels are down, so he may go off the photo light as early as today.

Brennan continues to make great progress. They turned off his warmer today and dressed him. Hopefully he can keep his body temp and both boys can go to cribs soon.

Mommy is feeling better today, although she is running out of spots for the IV port. The latest one is precariously on the top of her left hand. It has to be at just the right angle to work, so she is being very careful not to move it too much. Because of her infection and the course of antibiotics they are giving her, she is going to stay another day here.

The exciting news is she will be cleared to see the babies today! She is excited about nursing the insatiable Garrett during her visit.
