A set of triplets joined the NICU yesterday making things a bit noisy in the unit - Trey doesn't always like this. He ended up requiring some extra oxygen through the evening and early morning hours due to his agitation but he has settled into his norm of the 50's as the day progressed. This is awesome news because a different vent setting was weaned today. If he wasn't tolerating this particular type of wean his oxygen requirement would increase so we are very happy that he is maintaining his typical requirements. If he continues to do well with the decreases in the ventillator settings he will be well on his way to extubation!
Stella had a doctors visit today and she now weighs 9lbs. 2 oz. and measures 20 3/4 inches! She is a big girl now and developmentally she is doing great!
