All 3 babies had their eye exams and it was good news all around! The doctor said Sammy's eyes are showing lots of new growth and the blood vessels are sprouting new buds. We we so relieved to hear this. Not out of the woods yet, we still need to wait and see if all the new growth develops correctly, but very positive news. Danny's and Elsie' s eyes showed more improvement, the doctor said their eyes are almost at newborn status.
Weight check: Sammy is 8 lbs 3 oz. Danny is 8 lbs 2 oz. Elsie Mae is 7 lbs 5oz.
After several weeks of experimenting with rice cereal, tucker slings, and sitting up after feeding, Elsie and Danny were placed on reglan and zantac to ease their acid reflux. As much as I am resistant to put my babies on meds, I can say I already see a difference in just 2 days.
Hopefully this will be the final turning point and we can come home soon.
Sammy is on day 3 of a spell watch, so he could come home as early as Tuesday. Danny and Elsie were on day 0 when I left last night.
Here are some pics :)
