Born a little ahead of schedule!
After just over 4 weeks of hospital bedrest, the girls decided (well Madeline really) that 31 weeks was long enough to cook.
Both are still in the NICU. Maddie is still breathing on her own & has been since birth. Amelia is needing the assistance of a CPAP to breath, but seems to be doing better each day. I hope to update everyone more on their progress every few days!
The doctors told us to expect them to be in the NICU till their full term birthdate - which would be around the end of May. Hopefully they will exceed all our expectations and be home with us before that time!!

So beautiful! My boys were almost exactly the same size: 16 inches each and 3#8.8 oz, and 3#9.7 oz! So I can picture your girls exactly. :) I will be praying for your girls and for you - the NICU experience is not an easy one, but you can rest knowing they'll get all the care they need and be home soon! (And you can get yourself rested and ready for them in the meantime!)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, although bitter sweet that they're early, they'll grow to be such gorgeous little girls, i bet you're so proud of them xxxx
