High Flow

Both girls are on High Flow, which is a small amount of forced oxygen. They may go back on CPAP, but they are trying high flow for a few days. So far they are doing great!!! The are tolerating feedings and each had a bath without any stress! I have been praying they THRIVE... and they are!!! Thank you Jesus!!!
I spoke with the Doctor today in more detail about what Sophia went through her first few days in life. He then mentioned his response to her treatment and he used these words... "IT WAS A MIRACLE". I love hearing Drs use those words. He was refering to the meds given the first few hours of her life. Within a few hours of the medication Sophia's coloring and health improved. If the meds did not work Sophia would no longer be with us. The Drs were not expecting the meds to work. PTL!!!! Not only did they work, but she is now thriving. Sophia reached 3 lbs tonight. SHE IS A MIRACLE, as is Sabrina. Bina, now weighing 2 13 did not have such a rough start, but who can look at a baby, understand the dynamics and not believe in miracles!!!
The girls will be getting eye exams this week. Please keep them in your prayers. Also, please pray for their hearts. We are hoping the holes in their hearts close by mid-June so no surgery is needed. I will keep you posted!


Sabrina on just a tad bit of oxygen and doing great on her tummy!
