Our Twins Week 3 Update

Update posted by Jhayson Manlapas

Maria Carmela

Still with oxygen help but only indirect funnel with very low setting. Hopefully soon she can breathe with no difficulty on her own.

Todays Xray shows improvement. The doctor said she is getting there.

The doctors said they can still hear murmurs in her heart which means the PDA (whole in her heart) is still there but the murmur sound is now shorter and slower which may mean the whole is getting smaller and they also said that there is a great chance that whole closes on its own. This will be confirmed through 2decho a week after their 1st monthsary.

Carmela started feeding again after 3 days of not feeding but she started in the beggining that is why she lost a little weight she started at 2ml every 3 hours and the increase is 1ml every 24hours.

Todays Xray shows that her lungs are well!

The Doctors said that they can not hear any murmur in her heart this may mean that the PDA (whole in her heart) may already be closed. :) This will be confirmed through 2decho a week after their 1st monthsary.

Her BUN is already normal but creatinine still a little high but the doctor said it is not right aaay that they Creatinine will normalize. We will check again after a month.

Camilla Started feeding again after 24 hours of not feeding but she started in the beggining that is why she lost a little weight she started at 2ml every 3 hours and the increase is 1ml every 24hours.

Both the twins still have episodes of apnea and bradycardia but still they are better now than before. God sends Our twins miracles everyday. Thank you everyone for your help. The doctors said thay will and should gain weight and we will do it alowly but surely and Pray that there will be no more infections and complications.
