Getting along at the moment.  I think I'll show them this when they are teenagers and fighting over clothes....'See girls...you DID love one another.' :)

Brecklin holding on to Airalyn for dear life.

Brecklin: 3rd Time's a Charm


Update on Brecklin....I took her to her appointment today and here are the stats: Oh, PS and by the way: I AM NOT TAKING HER BACK TO THE NICU!  Love them tremendously, but I want her home. :)

Weight: 8 lbs: 59th percentile
Length: 53 cm: 90th percentile
Head Circumference: 35.7 cm: 74th percentile

The doctor said she looks the best she's ever seen her.  Her breathing was awesome and she was calm and her coloring is good.  I'm so happy my Brecky Bug is looking great.  I really think the Pulmacort (breathing treatments) are helping a lot.  Love you baby! :)

A Sneak Peek Into a Zundel Triplet Feeding

Our 'NICU' board.  I have to keep track somehow.  This thing has got it all.  How much they eat, what type of diaper they have, medications that need to be taken and the time that all happens for EACH baby.  Crazy, I know, but I have to try to be organized.

So, without further ado, here is how a feeding for all 3 at the same time happens.
 Step #1 is writing on the board and getting the bottles warmed up
.  Step #2 is getting diapers and wipes ready.

Step #3: Clothes picked out

Step #4: Bums and clothes changed one at a time



Step #5: Getting the babies to eat

Airalyn a happy camper now with her bottle.

Brecklin in heaven.

Camli eats hers the quickest and almost always falls asleep while doing it.

Hi girls! :)

Brecklin Update

Brecklin is still improving. Heart ultrasound today was good....no extra strain there, blood flow looked good, etc. She will have a consult with a pulmonary specialist at Primarys when she is discharged. Thank you so much for all the prayers and good thoughts. We ♥ our Brecky Bug! :)

Meanwhile, here is what we've been doing while waiting for Brecklin to come home....
The girls in the double stroller for the first time.

HOLY LIMO STROLLER!

Brecky Bug Readmitted For a Second Time

Update on Brecklin: Readmitted to the NICU with Metabolic Alkalosis. Electrolytes were low........Ph level was high (dehydration). The diuretics she's on for her lungs wiped EVERYTHING else out as well.....sodium, potassium, etc. They are giving her a type of Chloride to replace what she has lost. Hopefully she'll be stable and well enough to come home this weekend. Thanks for the prayers, support and thoughts.
