It's VERY hard to believe but Olivia and Cole are one month old already! They saw Dr. Antone today for a final weight check. Olivia gained 9 oz in one week and now weighs 5 lbs 12 oz and Cole gained a pound in a week and now weighs 6 lbs 11 oz!! Olivia is eating about 80 ml per feed and Cole is already almost up to 120 ml (4 oz). Both babies are doing GREAT, minus the Reflux and constipation issues with Olivia. Her Zantac has been increased some and also we have stopped using Thick-It in both Cole and Olivia's bottles, as per Dr. Antone, their digestive systems should be mature now. We're hoping that stopping the Thick-It will help Olivia's constipation some! Olivia and Cole will see Dr. Antone next on February 2nd for their Synagis (RSV) shots and two month appointment. Last, both babies are able to use their swings and bouncer seats now!! The bouncer became a lifesaver for me on Sunday night when George was gone snowplowing. Thanks Auntie Noelle for suggesting I finally use it!
I've included some pics from today and also 2 short video clips of Luukas with his siblings!
Update 1/14/09: Stopping the Thick-It has proven to be successful for Olivia!!!! No more hours and hours of straining at night!! We are still using it for Cole as it helps coat his stomach.
