Family members visited the babies last night and Felin's family are last to go at abt 10:30pm. we then tried feeding both babies for about an hour only to be defeated by them again. Joshua don't even open his mouth or simply refuse to suck and Josiah strangely will sleep once he is latched. We don't really know if he is really sucking. We finally decided to call it a day at 12+.
We asked the nurses to push both babies into nursery after our attempt to sleep with them in the initial half an hour. We managed to catch a short nap at 12:30am.
We woke up again when the nurse came in at 1:30am to check on Felin and changed the liquid by her bed. The nurse again came in at 3am and brought Josiah to feed. Josiah is really difficult to feed and we failed after an hour attempt. Joshua came in at 4am and we tried again. We failed and gave up at 5am.
Josiah went back to nursery due to noises during breathing and Joshua stayed in the room with us. For the next few hours, Joshua stayed wide awake and constantly seek attention. We took this chance to latch him but failed again. He only wants to sleep with mummy. He sucked a little bit and fell asleep on Felin's bed.
I woke up at 7am and went for my breakfast. I succumbed to the calls of Joshua and carried him a few times. He looks just too adorable to me when he keep staring at me. I think this will be an issue in days ahead...
In morning during the doctor's rounds, he informed us that Josiah need to be sent to NICU for observation. It is likely an airway problem or lung issue. Need to observe and perhaps do an X'ray. No result yet at point I wrote this post in the NICU Waiting area. Just pray everything will be fine.
