holiday season things are great with us the boys are almost 12 weeks old daddy is in the middle of a 2 week vacation from work big sister just turned 4 mimi and pop pop are coming for a 2 week visit in january and all 3 kids are getting baptized into the catholic church on jan 14 i m surviving this infancy that s what i am most thankful for after p was such a challenging refluxy colicy baby i was sooo fearful about how i d manage 2 luckily touch wood touch wood touch wood that seems to have bypassed us this time these babies can actually self soothe i call them magic babies p never could get herself to sleep at this age not until she was closer to 9 10 months old i put these babies down drowsy but awake and 90 of the time they re out t is still sleeping in a rock n play j has just been transitioned to the pack n play as i noticed a small flat spot on his head both are bathed at about 9 pm swaddled tightly fan on lights dimmed and nursed then i lie them down and they sleep for 3 4 hours then after feeding again they usually give me a 2 5 3 hour stretch then i change their diapers and feed them again by then it s 4am and the rest of the night can be dicey often pacifiers come out or i take a fussy one into my bed and nurse them side lying while i doze we usually get up officially about 6am seriously this is so much better than with p naps are still all over the place on the couch in a rnp wrapped on my chest on the activity mat in their stroller although i am starting to notice a longer more significant nap happening around 9am and around 5pm speaking of strollers i bought myself a major christmas present a thule urban glide 2 double jogging stroller it is amazing i cannot rave enough about it i m using it everywhere unless we are going somewhere quickly and i want them to stay in their car seats okay have to go get ready for mass xxxooo posted by marianne at 5 02 am 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels twins sunday november 29 2015 8 weeks old time is flying by oh my 8 weeks old and they decided to roll over from back to front today they both did it minutes apart this is extraordinarily early p was 4 5 months old when she finally got it slow down babies things are good here constant changing diapers nursing burping playing repeat i wouldn t change it for the world the babies are sleeping in rock n plays by our bed last night they went 4 hours between feedings longest ever after that it was back to every 1 5 2 hours like usual breastfeeding is going great even better than with p with p we dealt with reflux so i was always changing my diet trying bottles etc these guys just nurse on demand i also pump once every morning and have over 80 oz frozen they ve had bottles twice when i ve been gone and took them well can t ask for more than that i don t have much more to say life is good and busy as it should be posted by marianne at 4 29 am 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels twins sunday october 11 2015 readmitted j and t were readmitted yesterday with high bilirubin levels t had already done 12 hours of phototherapy during our initial stay but now both boys need it t s level was dangerously high poor thing we ve been here 24 hours so far probably 12 more to go it s heartbreaking only being able to hold them for 20 mins every 3 hours i m rooming in with them thank goodness breast feeding is going amazingly well i have over supply if anything both boys cluster fed like crazy on day 2 which i think helped bring my milk in early and strong also tandem nursing for whatever reason was very simple for us from the beginning i am so lucky for that i think having both breasts stimulated so often really helped my supply i ve been pumping once a day for comfort and getting 3 oz so i m also building a good freezer stash posted by marianne at 10 45 am 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels twins friday october 9 2015 birth story right now it s oct 8 we were released from the hospital today and have been home for 3 hours the boys are napping on a boppy pillow on the couch by daddy while i put p to bed i am right now sitting in the rocking chair in her room while she tries to drift off so i made it to 35 weeks 1 day not bad i had really wanted to make it past where i was when i had p 35 5 but oh well got damn close here are the last pics i took of my belly these was at 35 weeks exactly on saturday 10 3 evening i started having bad cramps they weren t contractions just a steady pain i took some tylenol drank fluids and took a long bath nothing really helped i slept ok but noticed the pain every time i went to the bathroom little did i know this was the last night is have as a mother of one i woke up sunday 10 4 with the same cramps my blood pressure was 148 102 and i had 4 contractions in the first 20 mins i was awake i got p to school then texted my doctor he told me to go to labor and delivery they would assess me and call him dh and i loaded up our bags and headed off on the way to the hospital i jokingly said 10 4 is a cool birthday at the l d wars we got put into a triage bed they were busy so to put it nicely we were mostly ignored they ran a 20 minute contraction and heart rate monitor which showed strong contractions every 6 10 minutes the hospitalist on call checked my cervix and it was closed blood pressures were 140s 90s the dr decided to let me go home i asked her what i should watch for that would necessitate me coming back in she said contractions every 5 mins or blood pressure over 140 90 i told he my pressures had been higher than that all week she then ordered one more check 142 94 she kind of sighed and said i guess we should admit you for observation okay then iv started and fluids running followed by 2 hours of literally being ignored dh left to pick up p and drop her at our friend s house i laid there texting people about how i had to pee and didn t have a call light dh came back and my regular perinatologist got there to check me he found me to be a fingertip dilated and was more impressed with my contractions he upgraded me to a real admission they would give me iv fluids overnight and if i was still contracting in the morning then we would reassess if not i would be discharged a new nurse cate took over my care thank you god above for sending her right when i needed her she told me i was being moved to room 519 i told her that was my birthday and we both agreed that would be lucky we packed up my bags and started out the door she stopped us and apologized the room wasn t ready since i was up anyway i peed when i got back into bed i pointed out to cate how when i was having a contraction suddenly the left side of my belly was sticking far out and causing severe pain in my left ribs she said that s odd try lying on your left side to see if that helps i laid on my left side for about 5 mins then had to go back on my back for her to hook up the monitors as i was rolling i felt a huge gush i said am i peeing or did my water break she said i think it s your water and her face went white my heart about stopped i said is it blood she wouldn t answer me she was too busy hooking the monitors back up i widened my legs and yelled at dh am i bleeding he nodded care starts yelling i need help in assesment arm 1 no one comes she turns my iv fluids up wide open then yells at the top of her lungs i need help now finally several people flood the room this whole time i can just feel the blood flowing out it was so terrifying yet i was in some sort of shock which made the whole thing seem like it was happening to someone else the anesthesiologist takes my hand and starts asking me questions he promises me a spinal anesthesia and that i won t feel a thing yet another new dr comes in and says so we ve got an abruption even though i did know it was a placental abruption actually hearing it scared me i started crying and i don t think i stopped till the babies were out i just kept thinking back to nursing school my teacher told us abruptio placentae is the thing that can kill both baby and mom they wheel me down to the or frantically trying to find my dr he had already headed home they are then trying to find the head ob she s gone too some other dr is standing over me scalpel in hand waiting for permission to start finally i yell i give you permission she laughed said good enough and began thankfully the spinal is working well even though it took 3 tries as i kept shaking and crying when the poor guy was trying to insert it just before baby a was born dh was brought in he was holding my hand as we heard baby a is a boy loud crying by j amazing 30 seconds later we hear baby b is a boy no cry they tell me he is being resuscitated that it was his placenta that had detached 60 seconds later he finally cries and then amidst laughter we hear and he s peeing all over us that s our t j began having some trouble keeping his oxygen levels up and was taken to the nicu for assessment t followed a few minutes later dh went along with them while i was in the or being put back together my dr finally arrived and took over the procedure as he is chatting with the other ob she tells him you should ve seen it we couldn t even see baby b his sac was full of clots i ve never seen anything like it i asked a question and then they stopped talking i should ve shut up and i would ve learned more cate took me to pacu and then to postpartum where i was eventually reunited with my boys the next few days were a whirlwind of breastfeeding going great bili light therapy for t respiratory therapy and antibiotics for mommy and getting to know our new
