The Twins

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

Hello again everyone.

Thanks to all who e-mailed me, all who tried and all who thought of us in your hears. Some of you may have tried, but were unsuccessful. Our server at work has been down a few days.

The twins are doing great. They have gone through the usual lose of birth weight and are gaining back. Andrew, who weighed 4-1 at birth, now weighs 4-3. Rebekah, who weighed 4-10 at birth, now weighs 4-5. Rebekah is taking a bottle at every feeding and Andrew is taking one at every other feeding (tube feeding in between). By tomorrow, he should be on all bottles. They are getting mom's milk (or liquid gold as my wife calls it) everyday and I think that will speed up their time in the NICU. Thanks again.

Bart

Is good to hear that the twins are doing well, Bart. My wife has completed her sixth month of pregnancy, and if all goes well, will deliver a baby girl in late March / early April. Regarding mother's milk, I dubbed my wife the official "meals in heels".

Have a good day, and be sure and keep them twins warm this winter. It sounds like they have a great start.

My nephew was born 8 weeks early just a few days after your twins. He weighed in at 3 lb 6 oz, but like your twins, is doing great! It's amazing how functional babies are when so small and born so early. Congratulations to you!
