4 Weeks, 4 Days (GA: 32 Weeks)

We had a pleasant surprise today: Gabe was moved back to University Hospital.  Nanette and I showed up at the hospital right after Gabe was transferred.  It turns out that the Life Flight crew was responsible for the physical transfer from Primary Children's to University.  No, they did not use the helicopter to cover the 100 meters between buildings.  They used the convenient sky bridge.  I had never considered the walk across the sky bridge between the hospitals that perilous, but the Life Flight crew successfully crossed that bridge and got Gabe next to his brother with the greatest of ease.  I can only imagine what the bill will be for this service.

Both twins are doing great.  Zeke's feedings are up to 21mL every three hours.  For reference, Gabe, who is at full feedings, is getting 34mL every three hours.

Nanette got to hold Gabe for the first time ever today!  The nurses were so surprised that she had not held him yet, but with all her health problems she has just not been able to travel to the NICU very much in the last three weeks.  Nanette and I took some pictures of the event.

Many helping hands to get the nasal cannula in the right spot.

Mother and child united at last!
