Tiff, great to hear that Ivy and Noah have both gained weight. Way to go bubbas! Good news about the alternate suck and tube feeds too. They are getting closer and closer to those hospital doors. I found that once Josh got to that point, he was on the downhill run. I meant to say yesterday that I had taken a look at their piccies. They are just adorable!
I do know what you mean about needing to do everything for the twins. I was the same with Josh. I didn't want someone else taking care of him. It is definitely worth all the late nights and travelling time, but very tiring. You must be exhausted. I was exhausted and I only had one bub in hospital and no kids at home to take care of!
Josh is doing really well. Unfortunately I had to give up breastfeeding him (he just never really got the hang of it) and he is bottle fed now, but he is feeding and growing really well. Being born so early, it took him a while to get out of that newborn stage, but he is really coming along now - all smiles and chats. I've done up a webpage with a few photos if you want to have a look.
WelshGirl, I'm doing well thanks. I've recovered well after the preeclampsia and C/S. My BP still seems to be sitting a little high, but hopefully a bit of weight loss will help that. It sounds like Seren is doing really well too after such a rough start. I had a look at her photos and she is such a sweet little thing. The picture of her on her tummy just made me want to pick her up and cuddle her! Are you TTC again now? I can understand how scared you are about maybe having another prem. Have your doctors said anything to you about the possibility of it happening again? It's a lot for you to consider after everything you went through.
Girls, do you think it's worth me asking one of the mods if it would be possible to create a sticky general chatter thread in this forum? It might be a good place for prem/NICU mums to chat?
