We wanted to plan our day out in case Lilah was coming home, so Sean called the NICU first thing in the morning to find out her status. Unfortunately she had been too tired in the night to take her feeding so they put her feeding tube back in to help her twice. Once they did that, it reset the clock for 48 hours of feeding by mouth. So now she won't be coming home for at least a few more days. What a bummer.
Today Charlotte was 4 lbs 10 oz and Lilah was 4 lbs 5 oz! Charlotte is eating 28 mL at a time and a full feeding is 36 mL, so she should be up to a full feeding Monday or Tuesday. She still can't always eat it all by mouth yet, but she's working on it. At least she's no longer facing any more medical issues!
For all intents and purposes, the nursery is complete and looks great. I still have quite a bit of organizing to do because of the generosity of all of our friends and family, but I'm chipping away at it. I'll post some pictures a little later this week.
