COVID19

Hey friends,

I know life is crazy for everyone right now. I wanted to give a quick update on the girls and how this craziness is affecting us.

Lily is doing very well. She's almost 7 lbs now! (6lbs 13 oz) We are waiting on her next gap study.  Hopefully it will happen sometime next week, but surgeries are on a case by case basis right now so they haven't given us a date yet. She's off her caffeine for over a week now which is great.  She also moved into a regular crib.

The hospital has been getting stricter and stricter on visiting policies.  We can still go see her, but only one of us (Joe or myself) are allowed in the hospital at a time. Cora can still come with me, but Rose is not allowed. We understand why,  but it makes it hard to go visit.  Plus, with the shelter in place order, I no longer bring Rose to daycare or have others come to our house to watch her. So I can only go visit if Joe is home. Right now,  Joe is still working. They are moving to 4 ten hour shifts next week.

Cora is growing too. 9lbs now! Both girls got their 2 month immunizations yesterday.  I brought Cora to her pediatrician's office,  but we had to go through the back door and they checked my temperature and Cora's temperature before we could go in. Cora is off all supplements now, so she's just breastfeeding like a full term baby. She's been having some tummy trouble that may be due to switching between different supplements and then going to just straight breastmilk,  or might be reflux. The doctor wants to wait a couple weeks before giving her some like prilosec for reflux.

Rose is doing well, just a little confused by the change in routines. She's happy to play outside more now that it's warming up a bit.

We appreciate your love, support and prayers.  Love you and stay healthy!
