Mommy spoke with the NICU Doctor in the morning when she woke up to pump and the Doctor told Mommy that both Gerald and Isabella had a great night!
Bella took 42 cc's of breast milk from Mommy at her morning nursing session! Someone must have forgotten to tell Bella that she only eats 36 cc's per feeding.
Trey did an excellent job at his first nursing session of the day! He took 30 cc's of breast milk from Mommy!
Mommy had her post partum check up today. Dr. Rosen said that Mommy is doing very well. He said there are still some things that will be difficult or uncomfortable for Mommy's incision, but gave Mommy approval to resume living like a normal human being again ~ for the very first time this year! Mommy is almost back to her pre-pregnancy/pre-fertility medication weight. She only has five more pounds to loose!
Both babies had their weekly blood draws today and the results were normal!
Mommy thinks getting blood takes wore the babies out! At the second nursing session of the day, Trey took 14 cc's of breast milk from Mommy and Bella took 16 cc's of breast milk from Mommy.
Trey and Bella were each offered a bottle for the second time today! The nurse said that Trey was so excited and tried very hard to eat from the bottle, getting 17 cc's of breast milk from it! What a good boy! Bella showed all of her feeding cues showing that she was ready to eat, until she realized that the nurse was giving her a bottle, at which point she refused to eat anything from the bottle! I guess she is a breast feeding girl!
