I am so happy that those babies are doing so well! With them both already over 2 lbs. sounds like they are going to be pretty good sized twins!

Please tell Jen daily that she is a tough, brave woman to endure all of this. Send Happy B-day wishes from me as well. Remind her that next year, at this time, she will have two beautiful boys around to help celebrate her B-day!

Take care of yourself too, Shawn.

Jeannie

Very happy to hear that everything is going well (sorry to hear, however, that Jen is having such a miserable time of it).

Couldn't be more pleased that you folks are coming into the final weeks of this--still sending the best that we have to you and yours.

I've got the feeling that you'll soon be busier than the proverbial one-legged man in an azz-kicking contest with these two new boys stirring up their own brand of double-trouble.

All the best,

George

Glad to hear it!

From the father of a 1lb. 9oz. preemie, I know what you guys are going through. Its a tough long road, but everything will be fine. Hang tough. I learned more in the two months when he was in the NICU than I have the rest of my life.

Our thoughts and well wishes are with you and Jen.

If you ever need to talk, just let me know.

That was 19 years ago. Wow, how time flies. I'll have to post "then and now" pictures. Hang in there Mom, Pop and babies. Prayers, Donna

Well, tomorrow is 29 weeks... holy crap we're actually going to have babies! I'm a little askeered now. Shocked

Jen is doing much better. She hasn't thrown up in a week. The diet they have her on and the stomach medicine seem to be doing the job. I even got to wheel her down to the hospital courtyard for her first real sunshine in 5 weeks, so that was cool. Even so, she is going stir crazy. I think she is probably going to start online shopping for baby stuff, I am so screwed.

They are talking about lletting her go home (possibly) around the 32 week mark. Let's hope they need to consider *that*.

Shawn
