Maryn -
She is doing very well and has started her feedings of 2 ml every 3 hours. She is off of her oxygen and breathing room air without assistance. She had developed a pocket of air in her lungs but it looks like she is dealing with that on her own as it is getting smaller. She has closed her murmur completely. She is also off of her photo therapy as of now. The doctors are very happy with her status.
Brynn -
Brynn is still breathing room air on her own and doing well. She is off of photo therapy for now as well and gaining back the weight that she lost over the first few days. She has not been able to close her heart murmur so they are doing an x-ray this morning to decide if they will need to perform surgery this afternoon to close the hole or not.
Leah -
Leah is also breathing room air on her own and doing well. She has had a few episodes of forgetting to breathe, so they put her on the same meds as Maryn to assist her with remembering to breathe. Leah has also gained back the weight she lost in the first few days. She is also just like her sisters and off of photo therapy for now and doing well. She is also just like her sister Brynn and has not closed her heart murmur so they are going to do an x-ray on her this morning as well to decide if they will need to perform surgery.
The doctors have told us that all of this is very normal and in the grand scheme of things our girls are doing very well. Please pray that Leah and Brynn were able to close their murmurs over night and that surgery will not be necessary and they will be able to start their feedings like Maryn.
We will continue to update as we can, our Internet at home is not working right now so it has made updating the blog a little more difficult.
Here are a few more pictures as well.
