They're here
The twins are here!
Ni.ko 3 lb 7 oz
Ar.ya 3 lb 4 oz
While they arrived early at 31 weeks + 3 days, they're doing really well in the NICU. Right now, I'm just grateful that we all made it and are okay. The birth story will be coming as soon as I can manage it.
Oh my goodness!!! This is unexpected but such happy news! Congratulations on the birth of your babies! I hope they continue to thrive in the NICU and come home soon!
I was so surprised to see this post, but thrilled you are all doing ok. I can't wait to hear the birth story, and I hope everything continues to go well and you are all home soon.
Hey Jen, Congratulations! I bet E is so excited to be a big brother! I've been checking in on you during your pregnancy...I'm happy that you all are okay! Take care of yourself and those sweet babies! All my best!
Congratulations! As mentioned above I had my twins at 29 and 4 two weeks ago - about the same weight as yours. The NICU is tough but you will get through it! Email me if you want some support, need to vent, etc!
Oh wow! Glad to see pics and love the mames too! Good that everyone is doing well all things considered ! Will keep you all in my prayers!!! Looking forward to hearing the details. Well done, mama and babies!
