6.15.09: Intensive to Intermediate

After spending the day at the NICU, just as we were about to leave we learned that the girls were being transferred to a different section of the NICU. Turns out they were in the Intensive - Level 3 section of the NICU and have already been upgraded to the Intermediate section of the NICU. This is an excellent sign although it is still hard to get information. One would think that due to this upgrade in status and decrease in need of critical care, that they would be coming home soon - however depending on who you talk to the departure date varies quite a bit. The standard answer to predictions of departure date is - when they were due (which is 7/21 for us). However, sometimes you hear that they consider 37 weeks to be full term - in which case they would be coming home in late June early July. Then sometimes you hear people say in could just be another week or so. Basically this means we have no idea, but the move from NICU (Intensive) to NICU (Intermediate) is a positive step in the right direction.

Sorry to everyone as we have been struggling to balance our time. Wanting to spend every moment possible at the NICU while still attempting to conduct semi-normal basic tasks (ie shower and sleep) has left us behind in our blogging - although we have been good about taking pictures. In the next week or so, we will figure out a routine and a balance but for now we are just enjoying that chaos that is the arrival of the three newest Robertsons :)
