Both babies tried breastfeeding this week for the first time. Dillon (being the guy) had no problems and LOVES it. Madeleine is not so sure. She latches on, but seems rather disinterested in the whole affair. She only seems to go for a few seconds at a time. Dillon on the other hand would quite happily spend 24 hours/day on there. Another step forward though.. and closer to getting out of here.
Dillon is now up to 4lbs 14oz (He'll probably hit 5 lbs today), and Madeleine is 3lbs 10oz. We have had some ongoing problems with the reliability of the scale in Madeleines incubator, so now we are are weighing them both on an external scale. Here they are hanging out on the scale.

If they aren't just the most precious little darlin's ....
I don't know what is! I can't believe how much they look alike being boy and girl. Madeleine looks like a real live doll in that little outfit!
How are you enjoying breast feeding Ab? Isn't it just the coolest thing? And why does it not surprise me that Dillon latched onto it so quickly????
haha
Please give them a cuddle for me when they're snuggled in there.
'Til next time, loads of love 'n stuff from Lil XOX XOX

Well hope everything goes well with the Breast feeding Ab!!
If it does there truly is nothing like that bond!! Don't get discouraged or take it personal if it doesn't!! Some babies just go for it and some don't??
By the sounds of if Dillon is on his way and I will keep my fingers crossed for Maddy!!
Larry says by the looks of it you will be just fine!! Ha Ha
Wow is it me or does Dillon have a double chin happening?
Just to adorable both of them!!
For some reason Maddy's video would not play for me??
Just love seeing them regardless!
Enjoy Ab, and thanks for yet another great update David!
