We just got home from the hospital. We have hit and hopefully tackled a major hurdle. Charlton's small intestine ruptured and they had to do surgery to clean out his abdominal cavity. The surgery went well and he is recovering. He will need another surgery to repair the small intestine after he gains some strength. Both babies are requiring more oxygen today and both have been taken off of breast milk. We keep getting told that this is a "roller coaster ride", I think we just went down the first hill.
We went to see them yesterday. Charlton is done with his photo therapy so he doesn't have to wear eye shields anymore, and I got some good pictures of his face. The nurse says he has my jaw line, I don't see it. Savannah is doing much better than her brother in terms of oxygen saturation. Everything else is status quo.
