Okay everyone, here's a picture dump to get you started. This is probably only a third of the pics we have so far, but it will be enough to tide you over! They're all doing pretty well. Baby A is a rockstar and is just really chill. Baby B, as you can see, is on CPAP to help her breathe with less effort. It stinks because it makes it hard to get super cute pics of her. Baby C is on room air for now, but her breathing is a little too fast and a little too hard for her, so I wouldn't be surprised if she gets put on CPAP by tomorrow. =( I better take some more pics of her before that happens! It was amazing to get to hold them! I still haven't gotten to really snuggle with Baby C so she's next on my list. But she got some nice skin to skin time with her mama Michelle and some snuggle time with Grandma Stephen so she's being well loved. I got to do some kangaroo time with Baby B and it was cool to see her oxygen saturation improve and her respiratory rate settle a little bit. Baby A, the big hoss baby that he is was doing well enough to try nursing. He's a lucky guy and he got to sample all four breasts! =) He did great for his first time and actually did some really great sucking. If he keeps this up he's going to keep growing like a weed! The girls will be getting "colostum mouth care" where they rub colostrum around their mouths to get them used to the taste. Okay, gotta run, but wanted to say thanks for all the love and support!
Awesome! Lucky guy, having so many good options to choose from!
