Juliette hit 4 pounds today! I can't believe it - I think officially she's 4 lbs, 1 1/2 oz and it's amazing to me how far they've come from the 2 lbs and 2 lbs 11 oz at birth. Lily has gained more total which is great so hopefully she can catch up pretty quick. I think she was 3 lbs, 6 oz or so today.
I went in a little bit earlier today so that I could be around for both Juliette's 11:00 feed and 2 pm feed. She did great nursing at 11! I'm pretty sure she got a decent amount but not positive so they gave her her normal full feed anyway (through the NG (in the nose) tube). At 2 however it was a different story - she pretty much slept through the feeding (whereas she was wide awake at the earlier one!) so we didn't nurse, I just held her for awhile. Having her in the crib is so nice because I can just pick her up whenever I want to now. It's great. I can't wait for Lily to be in the crib too!
Lily's big news is that she "graduated" from a high-flow nasal cannula to a regular nasal cannula! The high-flow pushes humidified air and the air in the regular cannula isn't humidified. It does have a "bubbler" though to give the air some moisture, but not as much. I hope she does well - I'm excited to get her on just room air like her sister.
Maia was in a great mood today. She's so much fun when she's in a good mood! We had a good time pretending to go "night night", playing "point to that body part" and talking to daddy on the phone. He comes home on the redeye tonight so we'll see him in the morning. I can't wait!
