I don't think the boys are going to want to come home with all the special treatment they are getting in the NICU. Yesterday the boys started getting massages & they will each get one everyday now until they are discharged.
Here's a peak at todays massages...

| Garrens massage |

| Kellans massage |
 |
| Cadens massage |
Tonight we bathed all three boys and it was the first time we got to give Caden his bath. He really didn't seem to mind until we flipped him over to wash his back and bottom, but overall he was the calmest.
Only one photo came out of Cadens bath, I was in a hurry so he didn't get cold...

The boys are all still doing great!!! Today the doctor decided to take Garren off his caffeine. He has had no apnea episodes so she doesn't think it is necessary anymore. Caden & Kellan are still having sporadic episodes, so they will stay on their caffeine a bit longer.
Garren was also a flirt today with the family liaison, she stopped to talk to him, he turned his head and looked at her and then gave her a big open mouth grin, he looks like he is laughing when he smiles like that.

Caden, 3 lbs 13.7 oz, he is really starting to fill out, his fingers don't look
quite so long and skinny anymore and his lips are plumping up too :) |
What handsome little guys. It looks like it is really fun being with them...especially when they look at you and smile.

I can't beleive how great they are doing. Yes, you are going to have to learn how to massage. Why the massages by the way?
ReplyDeleteYou too can do those messages at home not hard.
ReplyDeleteI just see the withdrawal from the caffeine oh well better than having apenic spells
