*********
Age/Adjusted Age: 11 days/ 36,2
Milestones or Tests: Jackson went home!! Madison is on Brady countdown and will hopefully come home tomorrow, she has another jaundice test tomorrow so I am hoping that goes well too.
Rants/Raves/AWs? I had some issues with one of the Neos but every thing worked out in the end.
GTKYPB: Did(Will) your choice of pediatrician change because of your early arrival? Nope, my pediatrician was highly recommend by other members of our local MoMs group.

Age/Adjusted Age 6 weeks - 35w5d
Milestones or Tests The boys will have another go at room air tomorrow - but the docs are more concerned about getting them stronger and used to bottle feeding. Boys have their weekly eye exam Wednesday and Tim might pass (way earlier than predicted)
Rants/Raves/AWs? Matt is almost 6 pounds now and Timothy is a hair over 5. Matt is up to newborn diapers and Timothy has outgrown his preemie clothes
GTKYPB: Did(Will) your choice of pediatrician change because of your early arrival? Surprisingly, no. We had unintentionally picked a former NICU fellow so she should be perfect and all the boys attendings know her.

ETA: Top pic is Matt, Bottom is Tim (last time he'll wear that hat)

The girls are 4w6d (36w5d GA).

I'm currently in the hospital with Kyler because if severe stomach distention that she's had. Since being here since yesterday morning it's gone down and we finally go the okay to try to feed her half an ounce and see how her tummy does. They're thinking it's a narrow rectum that my need minimal stretching through rectal exams.

Kinley is doing fine, eating so much we've upped her to 3 ounces although she may be closer to 4 by weeks end.

We haven't changed peds, the office is very knowledgeable and are actually the reason Kyler is in such good care now!
