another eye exam

We found out this evening that the babies' eye exam will be repeated tomorrow. We are not really sure why - only know that there is an order for it so there must be cause for concern. The doctor wasn't there and we were asked to leave as a new admit was coming. Anyhow, I will call in the morning to see what's happening.

Both babies have started to hold on to their pacifiers during feedings! They look so sweet - and their sucking is getting more productive and stronger. The order still has not been written to start Mary Louise on nippling so, maybe tomorrow? (that is, if the eye exams are ok).

XO,

  1. I just wanted to say that they seem to be doing so well (I know the eyes are a concern) but *touch wood* they seem to be growing bigger and stronger every day. Must be all that loving going on around them! Much Love.

  2. Glad to hear the continuing good news and praying for their little eyes! It warms my heart to hear you speak of discharge and going home with those sweet kiddos. I am so happy for you and your family! Best wishes and continued prayers being sent your way daily!

  3. We will keep praying for them to grow and for their eyes to be ok. Good news about them sucking their paci's. We are trying to break Hayden o fhis paci habit -Ha! Hopefully they will begin nippling soon. And did I hear the word discharge is floating around the NICU. That is great to hear! Keeping my fingers crossed for that one.
