The girls had another good night and Evie was resting peacefully at 8:30am. Maggie was wide awake with her billy light on and was getting her morning check-up. She weighed in at 830 grams – a moderate increase of 6 grams, but considering she isn’t eating yet, any increase is welcome. Dad got to assist in some ‘oral hygiene’ (cleaning out her mouth, she’s a bit of a drooler, but who wouldn’t be with tubes stuck in your mouth). She was looking around quite a bit this morning. But the exciting thing is that she got repositioned on her tummy. This helps them breathe and digest a little easier, but looks a little funny. It was quite the ordeal and will take a little for Maggie to get used to, but the nurses think it is great for them. Mom’s job is to go find a little stuffed animal for them to lie on! 
At Evie’s weigh in this morning, she gained about 21 grams!
