Ryan is successfully weening off the CPAP. They are taking him from that and alternating to nasal cannula oxygen every 4 hours. Tyler is closer but still not quite ready for the ventilator to be taken away. Emily is breathing fine on her CPAP and we hope to get her down to nasal cannula like Ryan soon. Ryan's tube feeding had to be stopped because he was not processing it fast enough. Emily is still getting continuous feeding at 1mL per hour and tolerating it well. Their sugars have still been good. Tyler was able to get off of his bili light for the day while the other two were still on theirs. This was a surprise for preemies. The are usually always on the light.
