We were told that our babies are considered to be Level 2 now but they thought of still keeping them in the same pod until they resolve the infection issue within the unit. Colored linens are back though so their nurses dressed them up with pink and blue linens to bring some excitement in their isolettes.
Joscel had her first cuddle again after those "apnea" episodes. Daddy is still watching from the sidelines because he's still sick. She's still on CPAP but we noticed that she does a lot better during her assessment when they remove it from her face. As you can tell from this video, she is quite content with no oxygen support at all. That tube is just a "feeding tube".
Joshua has now graduated from cycling of prongs and CPAP to only nasal prongs.
The eye doctor went there again yesterday to check on their eyes. She said that they have just a little bit of ROP (Retinopathy of Premature - eye disease) which is expected due to their prematurity. She said that they have a 40% chance they will heal themselves and a 60% chance that they will need a laser eye surgery in a couple of weeks.
Also, they are going to be vaccinated (which is a requirement for all babies after 2 months of being born) on sunday, their 60th day here on earth.
