Breastfeeding is going really well. The nurses are all amazed that Ann-Marie still has enough milk to feed all three babies; we feel it is such a huge blessing and an answer to many prayers. Tonight all three girls were able to eat over 75% of their meal on their own, the remaining amount is given to them through their feeding tube.
On Tuesday, the 37-week gestation mark, Ann-Marie will start 3-a-day feedings.
Measurements of the girls are approximately 17.5 inches long for Gracie, 17.75 inches for Annie, and 18 inches for Ruthie.
Weights of the girls are 2739 g (6 lbs) for Gracie, 2950 g (6 lbs 8 oz) for Annie, and 2964 g (6 lbs 8.5 oz) for Ruthie.
I can't help but grin from ear to ear! Annie on the left, Ruthie in the middle, and Gracie on the right.
I love holding the girls after they eat, they are soooo relaxed.

So much fun!

ReplyDeleteI just love that last picture! Three sleeping beauties!
ReplyDeleteThree-a-days on Tuesday, eh? HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU ANN-MARIE! What a way to celebrate! One step closer to bringing your sweetlings home.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of sweetlings... do you have nicknames for your girls? Individually or collectively?
I love every photo of the girls. How precious to see them cuddled (and matching!) on papa.
They're starting to look pretty dang chunky! :)
ReplyDeleteThey are really filling out! That's so fun. So cute. I'm excited for them to come home and we can see them in person.
