Since Elijah's scary residuals and puking last week he has been off of all feedings. They have taken quite a few x-rays and all have come back just fine. They are starting him back on feedings today, but are going to take it really slow. Hazel was also having some feeding issues, but a switch to soy formula and only breast milk (still just a very little), she has been fine.
Both babies are off the nasal cannula, and Hazel is now IV free. Other than the monitors she has nothing hooked up to her. She also might move to an open crib tomorrow. We will see, I've learned to take it a day at a time.
I haven't been to see them since Saturday, and talked to the neo today about it. He said now that its been a few days the possibility of me passing something on to them (as long as I wash my hands a lot) is really slim. So, back to the NICU for me tonight. I am excited.
Hopefully there will be great updates for tomorrow:)

I'm so glad things are looking up. And, fwiw, I just can't get over their names - I absolutely love them.
You and the babies are in my daily prayers - hope you all continue to improve!
