We celebrated their 2nd month birthday on Sunday.. We brought some chocolates that we shared with all the nurses and doctors. We would say they enjoyed them so much because the containers were empty the next morning!
On that day, they also got vaccinated. We watched them and they didn't seem to mind being poked. But yesterday when I came in the morning, I was told that our babies were having "apnea" episodes and looked so sleepy. We thought it was just due to the vaccination they got.
Joshua gave us a big scare in the evening because he looked like he was having trouble breathing. They X-rayed him and found that his tummy was full of air and that air was squeezing his ribs and lungs. It made it hard for him to breath so they decided to re-intubate him. They did it to give him a break from breathing on his own and to get rid of that gas. They also stopped feeding him.
It was just 3 days ago when Joscel was doing better with her breathing that her nurses decided to cycle her on prongs and CPAP to catch up with Josh. And now, she's back on Sipap again....
We visited them today and since they were doing better from yesterday, they said they might ex-tubate Josh and start feeding him again tomorrow if he continues to do well overnight. And they will put Joscel back on CPAP.
