You have been such an inspiration for me. It's wonderful to see how well your adorable twins are doing and to learn that they are big sisters. We also have three girls now. After our twins, we had a third little girl, born at 35w4d (5 lbs 13 oz and 18.75 inches). It was amazing to hear her cry and hold her immediately.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915600.post-36343871789078844572012-10-16T16:13:06.276-04:002012-10-16T16:13:06.276-04:00Hi there...I've been following your blog for y...Hi there...I've been following your blog for years (since I had my own preemie twins in 2006) and every once in a while I check back here. <br /><br />Congratulations on the new addition to your family...You have a lovely family, and are clearly amazing parents.

It helped me way back then, and I check in from time to time to see how you guys are doing. Your girls look amazing! And you are the strongest woman ever, to be brave enough and hopeful enough to have another baby. You have so much to be proud of.

Thank you!
From the beginning my docs tol...Alice,<br />Thank you! <br /><br />From the beginning my docs told me I would have to schedule delivery before 37 weeks. I had a classical incision with my previous csection, meaning it is vertical rather than the more typical horizontal. It was done at the time because it was believed to be safer for Eden who was breech. With a classical there is a higher risk of uterine rupture (which is usually fatal for the baby) IF the mother goes into labor. 36 weeks is just shy of full term and we were all hoping it would be a safe point and I would not go into labor before then. During the surgery my doc said that there were some thin spots on my previous incision, so we were glad to do it before anything tragic happened.Billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10589229199716201638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915600.post-2296203413302440642012-09-05T09:21:30.674-04:002012-09-05T09:21:30.674-04:00Billie, After the initial excitement, I have to co...Billie, After the initial excitement, I have to comment again, just to say how amazing you look so soon after birth, how much I love the name (also love Rowan) and why did they pick 36 weeks?
