mev - what a cute picture! I know it is hard when they eat all the time, it seems like you get no sleep. How are you handling it on your own now? when do you have to return to work?

julia - yay!!!!!! You are very lucky that your hospital still does a nursery. Ours only takes high/special needs ...

jenice - hooray! I thought the c-section was easier the second time around.

julia - are you still hanging in there or do you have two new babies?

Our little ones are doing better. They are still waking up often to feed at night, but they are going right back to sleep now and not partying all ...

mev - your babies are beautiful!

PA - congrats!

We are having some serious sleep issues at our house... doh! I will try to write something better this weekend! I am really enjoying reading all the posts and pictures about the babies!!!

Franca - congrats! How are you and baby girl doing?

PA - you are getting closer! I hope that baby will wait until your hubby is home! Hopefully the baby will engage before you go into labor. I am sure you are ready for something to happen=)

Jenice - 36 weeks is great! My first set was born then ...

mev - good luck tomorrow! It will go great!

Kamaile - I am so happy for you! I am sorry about your ribs that has to be so hard!

The babies and I are doing great! I am feeling almost recovered from my c-section. I still can't lift obviously, but the incision has healed and I am headed out and walking around. The little ones are still learning ...

we all came home from the hospital today. Thanks goodness I was ready. I will do a longer post in the next week sometime.

here is a picture for you guys!

The c-section, went great and both babies are nursing.

kitty - you are one amazing woman! I couldn't even imagine the stress of having the babies in two different hospitals. I am sure it is hard, but before you know it they will be home in your arms. I am so sorry that Leigh had surgery, that must have been so scary. I am glad that she is doing better ...

The blood tests came back normal today, but my blood pressure is still too high for my doctor to be comfortable with it. I really wanted him to do the c-section and he agreed to let me wait until Monday (so he could do it) as long as I stay resting and go in for a blood pressure check tomorrow. So ...

I went in for a checkup today and my blood pressure was high. They check it 3 times and it went down to a bit lower, but still not great. They are some blood work and I get to collect a giant jug of urine for 24hours. I go back tomorrow morning for another checkup. If my blood pressure is still too ...

Julia - my OB will let me go exactly to 40 weeks, but not past the 40 week mark. I am starting to go a little stir crazy (can you tell by all my posts :lol: ), at this point the babies would do great if they were born and I am ready. I have slowed down a little, I can't be on my feet all day long ...

I am so excited for kitty! and hoping those babies are doing great.


I also wanted to check-in and see how everyone else is feeling? Anything new?

I am just waiting to go into labor, hoping it is sooner rather than later.

Kitty - it sounds like everyone is doing great! Both babies will keep getting stronger. Keep working on breastfeeding, and remember any milk you can pump for them is a bonus. If you haven't tried it yet ask for a nipple shield, it can help smaller babies nurse. I used it for about a month with ...
