The big news is that the girls are finally gaining their weight back! Here are the vital stats:
Elena
Starting weight: 4 pounds 15 ounces
Lowest weight: 4 pounds 7 ounces
Starting weight: 4 pounds 15 ounces
Lowest weight: 4 pounds 7 ounces
Current weight: 4 pounds 10 ounces
Clara
Starting weight: 5 pounds 5 ounces
Lowest weight: 4 pounds 10 ounces
Current weight: 4 pounds 15.5 ounces (oh, so close to 5 pounds!)
Although these changes might seem minor, in the life of a preemie even small gains or losses are important indicators of how they're doing. We're all relieved that these girls are getting themselves back up to fine, fighting form.

That's great that they're gaining weight! It's amazing how they look bigger in their little clothes in this post than in their big sleep sacks!
