We can finally hold the babies!
Last night we visited the twins while they were being fed, and WE GOT TO HOLD THEM!!!
(More pictures available in our Picasa web album)
Here we are with little Beck...
(Beckham Jake Langley)
...the baby formerly known as Baby "B"
...and here we are with big Cole.
(Colton Kai Langley)
...the baby formerly known as Baby "A"
We both got to feed the babies from a bottle. Chastity couldn't breastfeed either baby, but got to spend some quality skin-to-skin contact time. She really loved the feeling, and hopes it'll help spur on her breast milk. It's frustrating for her trying to pump without being near them or holding them.
Chastity will likely be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, but the babies are going to stay in the NICU. We'll be getting to know the route from our place to the hospital very well over the next several days. It seems like Cole and Beck are both progressing well, but Cole will likely be discharged from the NICU before Beck just because of his size.
As always, we'll call or update this blog with more news as it's available.
Congrats guys! Heard you had the twins, good luck and hope you can find time to sleep.
