By the end of today, the boys were worn out. Corbin had a heart scan and a head ultrasound while Quinn only had a head ultrasound. They both acted pretty well for having cold ultrasound gel all over their hair (Quinn still had a gel-mohawk when Daddy got there after work). Both ultrasounds showed no signs of brain bleeding, which is great news! Corbin's heart scan showed that the PDA has gotten much smaller. The doctor is hopeful that it will close up the rest of the way on its own, so they are going to start treating him like it's gone now. They will do another scan in a few days to see if it's changed.
Quinn's feedings keep going up, and he may soon be off of all IV fluids. Corbin will keep getting all of his nutrients from his IV until the PDA is gone. The nurse calls their IV fluids "baby Gatorade" with all of the electrolytes and vitamins it has.
As things keep moving along, the Brunin family would like to again thank everyone for all of their support, thoughts, and prayers. More pictures tomorrow!
