Good day today with the wee ones

Sarah is 1450 grams and her nurse said she could wear clothes!! I'd brought some in, knowing we were close to getting to wear them, but had not imagined it would be today. My princess is so cute! She found her hand today and stared and stared at it then put it to her face and slid it toward her mouth, trying to figure out how to get her fingers in her mouth. Not too shabby for a 31.5 week preemie. She had a great day other than one brady while I was there - did a great job maintaining her oxygen saturation even though her peep kept slipping.

Jonathan's hematocrit was very low so he got 20 cc of blood today over the course of 3 hours, I realize it doesn't sound like so much, but they used to only get 8-10 cc at a time. My boy is growing! He started losing saturation as we faux kangarooed and was threatened with a return to his isolette. I decided to rub his back...and he loved it! He was able to maintain high saturation beautifully and when I stopped a couple of times and he fussed, as soon as I started again, he settled. Between that, kangarooing, and a loud paci sucking session, he was one content baby. Pic is of him getting his bath Saturday - did not get a good one today.
