After a somewhat difficult pregnancy, I had my boy/girl twins on October 21 at 31w6days. Fifteen weeks on bedrest and one week in the hospital, preeclampsia finally got the best of me. We were sure it would be my cervix that was around 2 or less for the last several months that would give, but it held strong.

I was admitted on Monday, October 20th and they decided to do a c-section Tuesday afternoon. I must have been very lucky, because that was a much easier process than I imagined. The recovery went quick and had no major problems.

Baby Info
Boy - Ansen Levi, 3lbs 14oz, 17.5"
Girl - Camdyn Willow, 3lbs 13oz, 17.5" long

Both are doing great in the NICU. The first few days were a stuggle, but they have came a very long way. Every day seems to bring more great news. I can't wait to have them home with me!

It's been great having this website to go to during this pregnancy. I had so many questions!!

COngratulations on your blessings! I hope they are home with you soon with no issues other than the normal sleepless nights. Ok, I don't wish that upon you, but at least it would mean you are all under the same roof!
