Milestone #2 - 28 weeks!!!

Today marks milestone #2. We have finally made it to 28 weeks! At this gestation, nearly all newborns survive outside the womb (with help from the ICU). Praise the Lord for this new victory!

Yesterday marked yet another growth sonogram. Most of the sono's that I get are just bio-physical profiles, which only measure movement, fluid levels, and practice breathing. However, about every 4 weeks the babies are measured for their size and growth. Their most recent statistics are -

Keira - 2 pounds, 12 ounces
Drake - 2 pounds, 13 ounces
Taerik - 2 pounds, 15 ounces

That's 8.5 pounds of baby so far! Each one measured about one week ahead of it's gestation. We are grateful for their continued growth and progress!
