Making Progress!

The triplets are still in the Special Care Nursery at Abbott and are doing very well! Luke and Ellie graduated into open-air bassinets this week and are doing a great job maintaining their temperatures!
Today, the babies were transported over to Children's Hospital for the "car seat test". This test is performed by respiratory therapists and checks to make sure the babies can sit in a car seat for one hour while maintaining their oxygen saturation levels. Andy was unable to maintain his temperature outside of his isolette and was transported back to Abbott without undergoing the test :( The sweet little one needs to gain a few more ounces to help with temperature regulation. Luke and Ellie passed the test and will be ready to make the trek home once they master their feedings!
Charlie and Tommy are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Andy, Luke and Ellie!
Thank you for your prayers!
