Jude is continuing to do great. He is eating like a champ and is very snuggly, getting a little more jaundice but nothing too bad. He is eating 17 mls a feeding. His weight is up significantly today to 4 lbs 15.6 oz.
Zeke is doing a little better. He graduated from cpap to a nasal cannula and bumped his feeds up to 8 mls. His weight is 5 lbs. 2.7oz. He is still at 8 mls for his feeds.
The big sisters visited the hospital today and spent some time with mommy. They had fun coloring and then we had some really flavorful conversation when it came time for mommy to pump. Ayla asks some very interested questions!

My swelling has really been increasing since I gave birth from the eclampsia. I have never experience anything like this before. My legs feel like tree trunks and even my eyes, ears and lips swell.
In the evening we went to visit the boys and Grandpa Joe and Gramannette went along for a visit. At this point Zeke was not tolerating anything. He wanted to be completely left alone and we couldn’t really even talk around him. Its really heartbreaking. It is amazing how much of a roller coaster things are, up and downs all in one day, little steps forwards and then little steps back.
