New room 05/27/2011
So, when we showed up this evening we were surprised to find Timothy and Elizabeth's room empty. It turns out they'd been moved to the "grower pod". Basically, it's a different area of the NICU where they put babies who are just trying to grow and put on weight. The room is a little smaller, but it has a TV so that's nice! It's also a lot quieter back in that area...no alarms going off constantly like before. The only thing I don't like about it is that they're no longer near Mary. But, it's good for them because it shows that they're doing really well and now the only concern is getting them up in weight. Elizabeth is now eating 22 mL every 3 hours (they base the amount the feed her on her weight, so this is a good sign because it means her weight is continuing to increase). Paul and I both got to hold her tonight, so that was great! (It was Paul's first time to hold her so he was excited) Other than that, not much new to report. Elizabeth is doing really well!
