Updates

The boys are off isolation - but still in the awesome private room.  Every day I think they will be moved and they haven't.  Lucky Me.

Today when I went in to hold the boys was the first time I have ever held them with NO alarms going off for either boy.  The other day they had some horrible de-sat's (when they aren't getting enough oxygen) and Brady's (when their heart rate drops) so they upped their daily dose of caffeine which stops the alarms.  YAY for no panic attacks today.  

I am so happy they are improving.  They are starting to suck on soothers so we might start teaching them to suck this week.  The things you don't realize you will have to do when your baby is born 2.5 months early.

Wow that's so great Brooke! I hope you're still doing well with going back and forth to see them every day. How's mister Jett holding up?

Praying for you all!

I remember so much of this stuff. I know the NICU is rough but I promise there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Plus then you get to be part of the cool-mom-who-have-endured-NICU club. Bragging rights! Keep us updated, I Love hearing about your littles!
