but we're gunna tell you anyways.....WE HAVE TWO BABIES!!!
As of May 11, 2011, at 7:38pm & 7:39pm Emerae Lane, and Emmaline Rose were birthed, not through the regular birth canal as we had hoped....but through what they call the C-section of my belly. Anyways, so we had them at 34 weeks and 5 days, and even though they were so early, everything in them was working splendidly. They were breathing on their own, and the only problem they had was regulating their body temps because of how small they were, which is a miracle! Emerae was the peanut of the two, and the reason they came so early.
In the left womb corner, weighing in at 3lbs 11.8oz.....EMERAE LAAAAAANE!!! In the right womb corner, weighing in at a whopping 4lbs 14.7oz.....EMMALINE ROOOOOOOOSE!! This weight difference is the whole reason they decided to join us so early.
Emmaline got to come home with us when I was discharged 4 days after they were taken through the C-section of my belly. Emerae spent almost 2 weeks in the NICU trying to get her body temp in check, and joined us at home almost a week ago. They are both amazingly awesome!! Eating like crazy now, upping their feeding sizes every other day!
As of their two week check-up Emerae was up to 4lb 6oz, and Emmaline was weighing in at 5lb 0.5oz. The doctor said they look great! They had to get their heels pricked, and it was heartbreaking.
They're 3 weeks old on Wednesday and we can't believe how quickly time has flown already. They have their one month appointment in about 2 weeks.
