Both girls were started on caffeine today to increase breathing frequency. Both girls had PICC lines put in, these are long term IV's that go into the girls almost to their hearts. They can be left in for longer periods of time than regular IV's that have to be moved frequently. Olivia had her Umbilical line removed. Megan is up to 3mls of food per feed (every 3 hours). They cannot increase Olivias food due to the medication for the PDA. This was one of the harder days for me, I had to go home from the hospital. This is flat out hell on a new mommy with hormones flowing, I couldn't help crying. My godmother stopped by and taking her to see the girls helped me calm down quite a bit.
