James came home Saturday afteronoon. He is quite the little noise box; even while sleeping constant noise. We are doing pretty well. As usual we have help from my folks (Mom and Dad brought over brisquit - a favorite) and Cory's Aunt Marcia is in town providing all sorts of help. I can't imagine two babies being here. It will be crazy! I know the Lord will equip me to provide and I will have help from our parents.
Hannah is doing pretty well. She kissed "little man" today. She generally giggles and snuggles up by the two of us when I am holding James. There is a little jealousy, but I think it is all par for the course.
Please pray for Aaron. He had a large residual (left over food in the stomach from prior feeding) this morning, so they stopped feeding him breastmilk. We are praying his afternoon x-ray shows no gas pockets (evidence of NEC). He has not gained any weight in the past 3 weeks. Please pray his tummy will heal and that the NEC does not return. [5-21: Aaron's xray came back normal and he was able to feed again. However, he had another large residual last night. He is being watched closely, so I am confident that they are on top of anything that may appear.]
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I will keep you posted. I have to go eat and pump while I can!
Love,
Laura

ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting to bring James home. We hope and pray that it won't be long before Aaron is with his brother at home.
