My Twin Boys are here!

Hi all!  I didn't post tons here during my pregnancy, as it was fairly uneventful, but tried to comment when I could.  I look forward to getting to know everyone here more now that my boys are here!
My boys, Henry Leo and Samuel Thomas arrived via c-section at 38 weeks last Thursday, January 30th at 8:39 and 8:40am!  Henry was 4# 13oz, 18.75 inches and Samuel was 6# even, 18.5 inches.  Both did really well and no assistance was needed.  I was out of it due to the drugs pretty much the whole first day.  We were discharged home on Sunday and other than having a home health nurse visit to check their weights and then again at the pediatrician earlier this week, they are doing great!  They did lose 10 and 11% of birth weight at time of discharge and we had to supplement with formula finger/syringe feeding, but stopped that as soon as my milk came in on Tuesday and after getting the okay from pediatrician.  They are doing really well at latching and drinking and are letting us get good 3-hour stretches of sleep the past few nights.  I'm so in love with them and so is my DH!

  • Congrats! So cute! Are they mono or di? I'm expecting mo/di boys, so I'm always curious when I see two boys.?:)
  • Super cute and their names are great!!!! Congrats!!

    Also, super awesome they are BFing! I'm pumping as mine latch but sucking tires them out too much. They will have been 37 weeks yesterday.

    Hope you are recovering well from your C!
  • Congrats!

    BTW, is that a moose on the butt of those pants? So adorable!

    They are di/di. Henry looks like me and Samuel like my husband. Definitely not identical! :)
