Pregnant after 35

The twins are here!

Grayson Mayer = 6lb 6oz

Gibson Matthew = 7lb 15.6oz - almost 8lbs!!!!!

38weeks 1 day gestation!

born just after 8am.  Both are doing great, and so am I so far.  Just starting to get some feeling back - and think I'm going to call for some pain meds before it gets too painful.  The c/s went well - so much easier than my vaginal delivery with Griffin - whew!,

I haven't really seen them since the OR yet- hoping they will be coming in soon.  Docs said all is good.

My big boys!!  Will post photos later!

Re: The twins are here!

  • Congrats, Gail! I'm glad you and the twins are doing well and I look forward to seeing photos.

    And I'm enjoying your G name theme... Big brother Griffin and Grayson and Gibson!  Does your DH's name start with G, too?  I have a friend from college named Keith. His wife is Karyn and they named their children Kayla and Kyle.

  • Wow I haven't been on much in this last week & what a surprise this was for me. Congratulations! What great healthy sizes. (My cousin also had big twins-one was 7.9 the other 8.1-that is insane, like carrying 2 full-term which you don't often hear of in multiple births)

    Great names & can't wait to see pics. Which hospital did you give birth in?

  • Congrats to you!  Wow such big boys!  Get as much rest as you can in the hospital and take advantage of all the help!   A speedy and easy recovery to you!! 

  • Wonderful news!  Congratulations and take good care of yourself.
  • Congratulations to you and your family!  Good to hear the c-section went well.  I am having mine tomorrow.
  • Holy cow, those are some meaty boys! :)   I'm a little behind in wishing you congrats, but - CONGRATS!
