How's their weight?

Anna's up to 3 lbs 11 oz, which is up 3 oz over her birth weight. Evelyn is right about 4 lbs 5 oz, which is almost an ounce over her birth weight.

But the really good news is that they gained 70 and 80 grams respectively in a 24 hour period. An ounce is 28 grams, so that means they gained between 2 and 3 ounces overnight. That's pretty close to "smooth sailing" in the weight and nutrition department. Evelyn's getting 44 ml per feeding and Anna's at 35 ml, so we're likely to continue to put up good growth numbers.
