The Twins are born!

Image
It’s been a whirlwind of a couple of days! Baby A and Baby B BOTH arrived at 8:53 pm on October 25, 2018 We had to do a c-section, but all went very smoothly. Baby Awas 20 inches long, and 6lbs 4 ounces. Baby B was 19 inches and 5lbs 9 ounces. Current prayer requests: 1. Babies are struggling to keep their glucose up. If this continues, they will need IV glucose in the NICU. The staff is doing all they can to help us Lee the babies with Mommy. We are currently supplementing my supply with donor breast milk. 2. I have slept about 2-3 hours since waking up on Thursday the 25th. I need rest so I can avoid infection and keep up a milk supply.  3. Praise God that the boys were able to be with us in the first place. It’s really typical for them to need 12 hours in the NICU for breathing at the age they were born. I assure you, they each have a very healthy set of lungs!

Today’s Doctor appointment went well. The twins have plenty of fluid and were flipping around just fine during the ultrasound. There’s plenty of room for Johnathan to flip yet. BabyB went from breach to head down during the ultrasound. Baby A went from transverse (laying sideways) to breach during the ultrasound. He needs to finish with a flip. I have already made progress that should shorten labor as well. So anytime now! We just need sweet Baby A to  flip! Prayer Requests: - Patience for me waiting for God’s time. - Drew to get better quickly. He is battling something and needs rest and healing. - The boys to stay healthy - I think I may have caught this thing too. Quick healing for me. - My 1st and 2nd Born and their emotions. They seem extra emotional lately. - Baby A to flip head down. And stay there! This is a profile picture of Twin B. We couldn’t get Twin A this time.                      ...
