Title: Twins on the Way
Post by Bob P on Dec 6th, 2010 at 1:22pm
Looks like my Grand-daughters have decided to make an early appearance.  They are going to make an appearacne today or tomorrow (if my daughter can hold off delivery till tomorrow).  Being 6 weeks premature, they will undoubtedly spend some time in ICU.  Please include them in your prayers.

Thanks gang.

Bob, Big prayers and juju headed their way. I know this is an exciting and pretty precarious time for you and your family. Your daughter is healthy, has great medical care, and all of us pulling for these little cherubs!
My guess is, just like all of our babies, they just cannot wait for Christmas!!!!

Please keep us posted, and, Grampa, why doncha go get a drink somewhere...JUST ONE!

Being the mother of twins I understand completly the big picture.  Your family will be in my prayers for many things for awhile.  Pics when u can.  Make sure your daughter has lots of support physically and emotionally she will need it.

Baby A (no names yet) arrived 5:55PM about 3 1/2 pounds.  Baby B 2 minutes later a little over 4 pounds.  They've already started to dial back the O2 in the incubators so they are doing well for now.

Thanks for all the thoughts & prayers, they worked!

Wonderful!  Give your daughter a big hug and a well done form us, and as soon as the little ones can handle it give them one too.  Now, prepare for baby spoiling. ( a very fun sport for the aged :D)

It's amazing how you can read in someone's face after they've realized that their whole world has just changed.

How absolutely precious.

Title: Re: Twins on the Way
Post by Linda_Howell on Dec 8th, 2010 at 6:04pm
Doubly changed.

She looks like she's tired...but yes radiant, all at the same time.   Bob, how far away is she from Los Osos?  If you're close I know that you and Sara are goi ng to be a big help to her.

The babies were delivered Monday evening.  The pic above is the first time she held one of the babies, Tues. evening.  It's baby B, the bigger of the two.  Baby A has a bacterial infection so is on antibiotics and still in the incubator.  My daughter was up all night barfing fro the mediacations.  But, she is already stating to give direcions to the family wanting to help so she is in good form.
Sarah is there now.  I was there Tues. night, am home now but will go back tomorrow (200 mile drive).  We'll be back and forth a lot in the next few months.
She was just joking last week with this pic:

All she missed is E=mc squared. lol

   200 miles means she isn't with-in a good range of y'all.  Sorry about that.

Post by Karla on Dec 9th, 2010 at 5:53pm
For inquiring minds.  Baby A and baby B is how they refer to twins in the whom and as newborns.  The drs label them that way to keep them straight with thier own individual medical histories.  I am glad to hear her deliverery was relativly quick.  Mine were born 1 1/2 hrs apart naturally.  They sure are small but will fill out very quickly.  I am glad to hear she will have lots of help around.  Are they boys or girls or both?  Identical or fraternal?  Mine are 25 years old last month.  My Dad still can not tell them apart and he sees them all the time.  Always has.

Post by Bob P on Dec 12th, 2010 at 4:25pm
2 girls but fraternal.  Both off the O2 and doing well.  Now they just need some time to grow and they will be going home.
Thank you Lord!
