It is almost 3am

I slept great tonight from 1opm until the babies were fed by my mom, aunt, and Dave at midnight. For some reason they sleep great during the day but not so well at night. I tried rocking, the binky, laying them together, laying them separate.

If anyone has any ideas on how to get these kids to sleep at night please let me know. The worst part is one will sleep then another will cry and wake the sleeping ones and then they feed off one another.

I suppose I will sleep on the other side.....

June 10, 2009 3 weeks 1 day

Well we have survived three weeks. Partially due to the fact the babies have only been home for two! Ha ha!



The visiting nurse has been coming to make sure the babies are growing. They are doing really well.



Mason is up to 6.2lbs

Katherine is up to 5.4lbs

Audrey is up to 5lbs



Now if we could only get them to sleep for 4 hours in a row....

If anyone can tell me how they get cute pictures of all three of the babies at the same time I would sure like to know!!!

The circle on the right of the photo is a coaster with a quarter on it so you can figure out scale...you can thank Papa for that.

First visit with Dr. Salow (pediatrician)

Everyone had a good checkup today. Dr. Salow said we can start treating the babies more like newborns and less like premies now. He said that their central nervous system is now developed and as long as they are not having issues we can introduce new stimuli.

Here are the new weights:

Mason - 5.10 lbs
Katherine - 4.13 lbs
Audrey - 4.6 lbs

They are still eating every three hours but we have upped them to 50ml each.

Hopefully by this time next week they will be up to 60mls and we can stretch at least the middle of the night feeding to 4 hours.

The last two nights have been a little rough for mom and dad because the babies have decided it would be fun to be up between 3am and 6am. Thank goodness for my mom and Auntie Rae who take over at the 6am feeding!

Thanks to everyone for all the well wishes!

The babies are here!

Well it has taken me a few weeks but I have three good excuses for why!
