Bel, I know how immensely proud you would be right now! HUGE congratulations to you on the birth of your babies and all the amazing effort you've gone through to keep them protected, growing and giving them the best start possible. I know they will thrive, knowing the love and care and best possible start they have had from their Mum.
So happy for you, and wishing a speedy stay in the hospital before they are home with you!
Just a quick update to let you know Isabella and Sebastian and the most DIVINE little people I have ever laid eyes on and they are doing exceptionally well.
Both little ones were moved to special care the night they were born and both are breathing on their own.
Little Isabella is just so tiny and precious and she looks just like I did when I was born.
Baby Sebastian in only 400 grams bigger than his little sister but he looks so much bigger than that! He was having a few apneas yesterday but he is doing really well. And he looks just like his daddy.
I got to have a good cuddle yesterday but I just wanted to run away with them, not put them back in their little humidicribs!
There is talk that if they continue being this well behaved, our babies will be transferred back down the Gold Coast to be looked after in SCN there.
I am managing to express my 'liquid gold' before my milk comes in, and they are being tube fed for a few weeks before they can suck. I am sore from the C/S and pretty weak from spending 9 and half weeks in bed but I have nothing to complain about.
I'll come back at a later time with a proper birth story, but honestly, amid all the stress and sirens in the ambulance getting to the hospital and the rush of giving birth to our children, I could not have wished for a more perfect day with a more perfect outcome.
Oh Bel, I am soooooo thrilled for you and your DH. What a wonderful outcome for such an horrendous journey. Isabella and Sebastien are such little fighters.... I am sure they will be home before you know it. Enjoy some real rest now for at least a few days... not having to stress over when they are going to arrive.
Congratulations again on doing such a great job of getting your precious babies this far!
Bel - congratulations on the safe arrival of your two precious little babies. You've had a hard journey, and you've remained so strong and positive. You deserve all the happiness in the world.
