Final stretch

Yesterday the boys started to finish most of their bottles and overall had a good day.
Today they are starting to talk about discharge for g. Earliest will be tomorrow if he shows weight gain overnight. They took out both of their ng tubes around noon today so they are doing ad lib feeding, or on demand feeding. They can have as much or as little as they want now. They need to just be gaining weight with how much they take.
C can't get out until the 16/17 because he has to wait 14 days from when he got a dose of caffeine to help his heart rate drops that he had the first few days he was here. They say because of his size the caffeine can still be in his system and we need to make sure its out before they release him.
G had a car seat study today but had a major blowout in the seat which caused his heart rate to drop. However, poop was from his chest to his toes. They had to change his leads and everything. They are going to retry probably tomorrow morning when a car seat expert is here.
Both boys will get circumcised in a little bit. And get their hep b shot probably tomorrow. They like them to weigh as much as possible before giving it, so its one of the last things they do.
I think that's all for today. Lots of exciting things starting to happen.
