All About My Multiples: Pregnancy & Birth

These beautiful babies were born at 32 weeks and weighed in at 3 pounds. They had twin to twin transfusion and therefore were unable to make it to 40 weeks. Overall they are in very good health and very active. Words can not explain the feeling when I see them hugging each other telling each other "I love you sister". Wow amazing...

My Multiples Are Special Because...

Despite being born premature they show how much they strive to be on the same level as other kids their age. They are speaking in sentences, they know their number 1-10 and even show a desire to learn how to tie their shoes. How amazing is that. Most importantly of all is the amount of love and care they show for each other. They look for each other and do not want to be apart. They are definantly my twinkies.

Advice

  • Having twins is a lot of work and patience is key. Always have help and share your kids with family, that will give the parents much needed rest.
