Turns out if you rack up 2.4 million in hospital bills they will throw in a free baseball cap! Who says health care doesn’t give back???
Actually we were having trouble keeping track of all of the twins EOB’s (explanation of benefits). We would get one from October and then in the same pile of mail [...]

Another uneventful day yesterday, which is great. One of the nurses told me that Derby is “looking exceptional”, which I think is amazing. We are still prepared for the ups and downs, but it’s great that they haven’t come yet. They had their 3 day ultrasounds on their heads, which came back [...]

It is 2:45 am and I just got back from dropping off some breast milk to the NICU. I am remarkably awake at the moment.They have me on a pumping schedule of every 3 hours. At first the nurse said if I miss some in the middle of the night it is fine because it [...]
Now the moment you have all been waiting for…

I know everyone has been patiently waiting for pictures. We had taken some right after they were born but they are so personal and the twins looked so fragile we decided to keep them private. It is midnight and we just got back from visiting the twins. We took a few pictures of our beautiful, [...]
Day One

Just a quick update before I take a nap. Recovering from the c-section is tiring, not to mention all that has gone on in the past 36 hours. I’m doing ok, I’ve been up and walking and the IV’s have been pulled. I get to have a regular lunch today rather than some broth and [...]
Birthday

I really need to stop writing posts the night before where things have been good because the next day usually seems to go to hell in a hand basket! This morning I woke up around 3 AM with contractions. I tried to remain calm and see how many I had in a hour; which was [...]

I’m going to make this fast as it is 10:40 pm and I’m tired, but our readers get so worried when we don’t post! This morning they woke me up at 4:00 am to take the Procardia, then a little while later I had a contraction. That made me worried it was going to start [...]

Sorry I haven’t updated. Family members have been calling my mom since nothing has been added. So far, so good. After a fairly traumatic Saturday, Sunday was calm (minus excitement for other reasons). The contractions have pretty much stopped and the babies are their active selves. This morning it took the nurse several minutes to [...]

So yesterday sucked. I woke up early because my nurse came into to give me some meds. Since I was awake I thought I would write a post (kind of like now). Friday night I had been feeling a bit different, I called the nurse and talked with her but she didn’t seem concerned. It [...]
25%

When Dr. Soffici originally gave us the twins odds he said there was a 20% chance I would get past the first week without delivering. We have now made it past the first week and have moved onto NEW odds that I have a 25% chance to get to 28 weeks. If you remember that [...]
