Laura and the babies have had a couple of uneventful days, which is great! Laura is finished with the IV antibiotics, which is also great because she no longer has the IV in her arm, so she feels more comfortable and free. The antibiotics are just precautionary to prevent infection as baby A's bag of waters is open and leaking amniotic fluid.

Laura's days are full of baby monitoring, Skype calls, journaling and texting now.  Monitoring the babies' heart beats is comforting but when the babies start to bounce around under the monitors it can be uncomfortable though hilarious.  You may get a text while they're being monitored because that's one way she can distract herself.  The babies get monitored three times a day for at least 20 minutes each.  Recently, though, they're moving around so that it takes longer, sometimes an hour, to get the monitor on them all (and make sure each monitor is on a separate baby).  

Here's what it looks like when the monitors get all hooked up.  The leg cuffs pictured below pump up with air and help with blood circulation.  The nurses jokingly call the leg treatment the "Emory Spa".

I've been bringing stuff from home to make it feel cozier and more homelike, in the hope that Laura will feel as comfy as possible and have everything she wants.  As you can see, we're moving in! 

Find it odd that this is posted early in the dawning hours?  That is because the babies wake Laura early with the need to feed.  Dining service ordering starts at 6:30am but delivers closer to 8am, so she has to place her order while having her 1st breakfast.  Todays' waking snack of choice includes delicious smoked canned oysters (Thanks Lewis!) with Swedish Wasabröd crackers & Babybel cheese...mmm!?!? This also happens to be a current bedtime meal of choice.  Her body is preparing her well for the impending constant fed/sleep needs of the babies' to come!
