Friday June 12, 2009 7 Weeks Old(Daddy's Birthday)

Megan's weight is 1864, 4 LB 1.7 OZ (woo hoo over 4lbs). Her food is the same. At her 11 pm feed she took her first drink from a bottle. She took approx 8 mls!!!!!

Olivia's weight is 2044, 4 LB 8.1 OZ. Her food was increased to 27 calorie high protein formula. It is made by mixing the 24 cal high pro with the 30 cal in equal parts.

It is difficult for the girls to drinks with the feeding tubes in. They can't get a good seal on the nipple. The feeding tube cannot be put in their noses yet because of the canula. If they take part of a feed from bottle when tube not in they will sometimes spit it back up when tube is reinserted. Very tough to figure out what works best and it is all very tiring for the girls.
