Together Again

Lizzie and Paul are together again. Yesterday, Jan. 24, 2007, they were put together in a large crib, which resembles a large steel cage. Charlie and I are very excited about this, as we plan on co-cribbing them at home.

They are still working on their feeding. Paul's up to having a bottle 2 out of every 3 feeds (5 or 6 a day) and Lizzie's gets 3 bottles a day. They've both been able to breast feed also. They get to breast feed once a day in place of one of their bottle feedings. We supplement it - as they don't quite get enough, however, they're doing good with latching and sucking. Unfortunately, they've had some reflux issues which cause their heartrate to be wacky (usually dropping very low). The doctors and nurses are not too concerned at this point, and I will learn more about the issue today.
