Today, both little guys remained stable. Corbin had another heart scan, and they discovered that the hole in his heart (called a PDA) has gotten larger. So, they are starting him on meds to help shrink it. The doctor still wasn't concerned, and told Mom and Dad that their worry level should be at a "2" on a scale of 1 to 10. They said that for the size of the PDA, he is doing very well, and it helps that they discovered it early. If not for the PDA, they said that Corbin would be on the same breathing system as Quinn.
Quinn was taken off of phototherapy this morning, and his feedings were increased. He is showing signs of being more independent than Corbin...Dad held Quinn and he cried and cried, but when Mom held Corbin he stopped crying.
Overall things are still good, and Mom and Dad are settling back into life at home rather than the hospital. The NICU is quickly becoming their second home, though. Corbin is pictured first, Quinn second.
