Big Stretch for Austin
Austin and Kadence have been progressing well and
gaining a lot of weight in the past week. Today Austin hit 5 1/2 pounds and Kadence hit 4 1/2 pounds. This was a picture of their room at the NICU at the beginning of the day.
That was before they moved Kadence to a bassinet which means she is getting closer to going home.
Yes, there is a baby under all that pink fluff. The hospital has begun preparing for discharge and are getting things lined up. The babies had a hearing test today which they passed with no problem (we're not at all surprised, they're very responsive to sounds). We also had to bring in a car seat so they could do a car seat challenge test with each of the babies. They let the babies sleep in the car seat for a couple of hours to make sure they can breathe well while slouched in a car seat so they can survive the ride home when they're discharged. The earliest they could come home is Tuesday if there are no other complications. Wish us luck!
