Oooo! Those would have been fun names for the twins!
We are sort of stuck in a holding pattern it seems. Lilah is taking the same amount of food by mouth and is only up an ounce over the last few days.
Alec is taking all his feeds by mouth now but has weighed the same for the past five days in a row. He needs to start gaining weight before they will consider sending him home.
It is sort of like watching basketball: The majority of the game is fast and fun to watch. It's the last two minutes on the play clock that never end!!!!!! We are so close to getting them home, but their progress is now slower and it seems as we will be here forever!
I have to keep reminding myself that their original due date is still two weeks away.
Stay warm out there!
Update: I have discovered the cure to Lilah's reflux problem.... Leaving on a Jet Plane! I tried other songs and they just didn't have the same calming effect. Now it's just going to take some convincing to get the nurses to sing it after every feeding!
