Everyone Poops

Yet again, our discussions today focused on poop...or the lack thereof.  Jack decided it was time to inspire them, so we got them a present and he read to them tonight...


We'll see if his reading had any impact on their digestive tracts when we call before bed.  Paige did seem to be really into the book though. Here she is listening to Daddy.


We are continuing to increase Paige's feeds and she is up to 13 mL every three hours.  We had gotten as far as 17 mL before she was sick, so we are almost back to where we left off.  Andrew is still vomiting with some of his feeds but it is a little improved.  They decided to start increasing him today but we will go at a much slower pace.  Our big news of the day is that the team decided Paige could try to breastfeed once a day!  It won't count as a feed since she really won't be able to coordinate yet, but we will at least get to practice.  We tried this afternoon and although she couldn't really latch, we got to cuddle and sit together for over an hour.  It was wonderful.  Hopefully Andrew will get a chance sometime soon, too!
