Mazal Tov Jewgal!

When you are up to it, I have a ton of questions for you. I just found out that I am having twins (I'm really early in the pregnancy) and I have so many questions.

How much did they weigh and how long are they expected to be in the nicu ? my twins too were born two weeks early. Smile

One twin was 4.5 lbs and the other 3.12 lbs, no official time of how long they will be at the NICU.

How about yours? How much did they weigh and stay?

Mazel Tov, jewgal, on the double and triple - not that I am wishing you triplets so fast, but my brochas are certainly in multiples! May you have bunches of nachas and may the little guys give you lots of joy, koach, love, money and sleep!!! Enjoy them!

Mine were not in the nicu b"h. And the girl weighed 5lbs 2 oz and the boy 6lbs 4 oz. I had them by c-section,, I developed an infection so never got to nurse them b/c of strong meds. ( well I did try months later but by that time they were used to the bottle) Sad

Thanks so much!

Actually being that you are blessing us in multiples with triple nachas, I'd like to share that this past parsha, that the twins were born in, was Prasha Vayechi, the end of Chumash Beraishis when we bless it withParshas Chazak.

At the end of the torah reading, like most of us know, we bentch together Chazak, Chazak Venischazek, Be Strong, Be Strong and you will Be Strong !!

What clearer bracha can we receive from Hashem that IYH everything is good and full of multiple brachos!!!

They were born in their 36th week, it seems small but also pretty average for twins at their gestation. I carried small too, didn't gain tonz of weight.

What week was your son born in that he weighed 3.11? Must have been more then 2 weeks, being that twins do develop alot quicker.

They didn't tell us a time of when the twins will be discharged, but we are davening that they get strong and healthy and come home soon!

I guess you can say our Bracha in disguise, is that, even though everyday we are not coming home with them Crying

, we still get to arrange our house, arrange our brains and most of all get our sleep BH, all in preparation for their grand home-coming!!

It looks like one may be coming home sooner then the other, so it will be like brining home a singleton and then when his brother comes home we were discussing about maybe going to Seagate for a few days, we take day by day, no definate plans yet!

Yes BH, we are resting up, traveling back and forth every day for a few times can be tiring, even though it doesn't compare as to having them at home Sad

!!

Hey, if we were meant to have twins, I'm glad it's the first time around, now we feel capable of having singles Wink

.

We don't feel like we are missing out anything, BH we are very happy to be blessed with such beautiful and healthy children KAH!!
