Today was a big day for Wes. Wes was able to be "ad lib" which meant that he could eat anytime he wanted and as much as he wanted. He did not eat quite as much as they would like but he did very well. He has to eat within 4 hours of each feeding though. He also passed his car seat test ( all babies under 37 weeks have to pass this test before going home - he had to sit in it for 90 minutes and not have any alarms go off (checking for oxygen saturation and heart rate and blood pressure)and hearing test. He is on the path to going home - which is so exciting for Rob & I! He needs to continue to gain weight and if he does that he will go home Tuesday or Wednesday!!!

Shea continues to progress with her feedings. She can try 4 times a day. She still has a long way to go but she is making progress :) Hopefully this week her weight will get to 4 lbs so she can be moved to a crib.

Wes's oral feedings were increased to 6 times a day today. Everything for Shea remained the same. Not a lot of news to report today.
