I wasn't going to post a blog today because I didn't expect to have any news to report. But when we arrived at the hospital earlier in the day the nurse told us that the doctor's were discussing starting Bronwyn on breast milk today. We thought we'd have to wait for several days to get to this stage. When we went again later in the day she was already started on the breast milk. It is being fed to her through a tube in her nose to her stomach - and for now it is a very small amount.
So now we are hoping that she does well with this stage. We are thrilled that she is doing so well and she seems to be getting this done when she needs them. She wants food so they start with food.
Gavin is actually not feeling well this evening. He had a bit of a fever but it came down when we gave him some motrin. I am hoping it is nothing major and that he is just perking tomorrow.
Tomorrow we should hopefully find out how she is tolerating food.
I just wanted to mention that my best friend Alison had a baby boy the night before last. They have named his Austin (I believe - I called her mom for info and haven't actually talked to Ali). So congrats to Darren, Ali & Aleya.
