Baby Update

The babies are all doing very well. They got moved to the NICU step down unit on Saturday. Torii and Kenton both have their feeding tubes out and are taking all of their bottles and nursing great. In fact today I was able to nurse them together at the same time and they took their whole feeding from me not needing any supplement from a bottle. Kinley is doing better with her feedings but she gets tired faster and still needs her feeding tube a couple times a day. Kinley is also having to meet with an OT everyday because she favors one side of her neck. They believe it is from being stuck in that position in the womb. She was on the bottom with Torii and Kenton on top of her for the entire pregnancy. All 3 babies are still having sleep apnea problems and until they can go 5 days with no episodes they will have to stay in the NICU. I am hoping that Torii and Kenton will resolve this problem in the next week as they turn 37 weeks so they can come home. Hopefully by the end of next week. Kinley will take longer becasue she still has the feeding issues. We are ready to have them home and feel like this is all real. Right now Corey and I feel like we just have these cute babies to go visit in the hospital but we aren't really their parents. I spend from 11 to 4 each day at the hospital and then spend time with Lily. Lily has been going through some seperation with daddy and me. Corey's parents are here this week and it is great that they get to see and spend time with the babies and time with Lily. It is to bad they are not home with us but we know they are in great hands. Thank you to everyone for the support. Watch for more updates and when the babies get home and are ready for visitors I will let everyone know. People have asked how they can help and right now meals would be a big help as we go back and forth from the hospital and Corey is working.
