Daddy fed Kennedy first
Look how big the bottle is in her mouth!
Mommy fed Karsyn, not quite as big, but still big!
Burp Karsyn!
This is just a picture that Aunt Hailey got when I was holding Karsyn in the afternoon feeding, she was smiling a bunch and she got it just at the right time.
Hey everyone I just wanted to show you pictures of Karsyn and Kennedy's first bottle feedings. We have been trying to get the doctors and nurses to try because they are supposed to be able to suck, swallow and breathe by around 33-34 weeks, they are now 35. We tried Kennedy first and thought that it would be a 30 second deal and that she would either get too tired or she wouldn't breathe but she did so good. She drank about 10 cc's of her 15 total that she usually gets. The bottle is pretty big in her mouth but she did great! Then big sister Karsyn decided she wanted to try to show her little sis up and she drank about 7cc's of her total 22. I then burped her, which she did, and then when I put her back down to try some more bottle she started pooping...big time poop! Everyone in the NICU turned and looked because it was so loud and juicy. We then decided to let her finish pooping and then let her get the rest of her feeding through her OG tube so she wouldn't get too tired. Anyway they both did so great and hopefully we will be able to get one feeding a day to start out with the bottle.
