the twins are here! (EARLY)

&&&&
in Parenting after 35

So I had 2 boys!!  Fionn (pronounced fin) and Hugh were born on March 15 at 6:02am and 6:17am.  Vaginal delivery.  They are doing great- in the NICU, but it looks like Hugh will be home tomorrow or Tuesday.  They weighed F= 5lbs 9oz; H= 5lbs 12 oz ........ and are now both 6 lbs.  Fionn still needs to work on his feedings a little, but all in all, they are doing just fine.  Life is extremely hectic going back and forth to the hospital, but DH and I are doing our best to make it work.  Maeve doesn't know what is going on yet, but boy oh boy is she in for a surprise!!

Will try to post some pics at some point- now I'm going to try and rest up before the next hosp trip~

    Congratulations! Fionn and Hugh sound like they're doing very well. Hope everyone remembers to give your little girl some attention before visiting with the boys. May your family help you to continue to rest. Take care.

    Congratulations! Nice sizes!  Vaginal delivery is not that common for twins. How was the delivery? Were you in labor long?  Where did you give birth? I forget which part of jersey you are from.

     Looking forward to seeing some pics. Are you on facebook with us?

    I'm so sorry, I just saw your post.  I am never on here anymore. 

    EXCELLENT news and HUGE congrats to you and your family!  I know all too well about the trips back and forth.  You'll soon forget about all that once the boys are home and in your arms.  I am SO incredibly happy for you!  and what excellent weights, you did a GREAT job mama!
