Progress
Babies are making steps!
Update June 18 7:10 PM: Correct which therapies the girls are getting
IVs Out!
We’ve finally gotten both girls' IVs out, including the central line for Elizabeth. They now get all of their nutrients (except for Aspen’s caffeine) via feedings. They are adding additional calories to the breast milk for a few of their daily feedings.
As you can see in the picture at the top of the post, Elizabeth has her high-flow air taken off. That means that as of this morning her “moustache” was taken off as well. Other than the feeding tube, there is nothing else on her face.
Therapies
We’ve been told that they’ll have physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy coming by to make sure that the girls are developing correctly. We don’t really know anything at this point other than it is standard and they’ll be coming by.
Coming Soon
We don’t know when or exactly what the conditions would be, but we’re hoping that they’ll be able to be in open cribs soon! That would be nice because we could really pick them up just about any time.
