Five Weeks!

On Monday, the girls were five weeks old and have been in the NICU for five weeks.

Hazel: 4 pounds, 2 ounces; 41.5 cm long
Abby: 3 pounds, 14 ounces; 40 cm long

Both are doing well, still.  They had to up Hazel's cannula to 1.5, because she wasn't tolerating 1.0 very well (too many desats).  We worked on breast feeding again with both - Hazel did okay, and it took Abby forever to get interested.  Just as soon as I was about to give up, she tried it.  I think she spent more time licking than anything else, though!

Matt's aunt and uncle happened to be in town, so before visiting the girls, I met up with them in the hospital atrium for about an hour and visited.  I told them the preterm labor story and updated them on the girls.  Hopefully we'll see them again soon! 

And...pics... I couldn't get any good ones of Hazel while we were breast feeding, so today is all Abby:
