Well ladies , I had a sweep today ( didn't hurt one bit ) and doc said I appeared very favourable to start labour . Cervix soft and sweep completed . Doc thinks it should kick things off in the next 24-48 hours but if not has booked me in for induction on Friday morning . May just be two babies on the way on Friday

 

[twinmummy06]

I hope the sweep gets things started for you LW!! Exciting!!

Zane is here! Yes ZANE!!! Still haven't decided on middle name yet, but hey took us this long for a first name

3.15pm today (Feb 19th), 38w on the dot (37+6 to them). 8lbs 9oz (3890g)!!!! No length yet as they haven't measured it, hopefully tomorrow.
I ended up being put to sleep at the end because while they were riffling around in my insides stitching me up, it felt like they'd dumped a ton of bricks onto my ribs. Wasn't extremely painful but very very uncomfortable with lots of profanity coming out of my mouth lol.
When I woke up 30 mins later and went to recovery, Zane was very sleepy and grunting - signs he may have a little fluid on his lungs. He's currently in the nursery 😢 chest X-Ray looks clear and waiting for blood results for infection. If fluid treatment is time and antibiotics. Sucky!! Waiting for catheter to be removed so I can go see him. They said maybe tonight but more like the morning.

Hope the pics work!

Will update more as I know xx

[twinmummy06]

Thank you ladies, we are very chuffed with our littlest man.

Any progress LW?


Quick update on Zane. He's still having trouble breathing. He's breathing rapidly and making these decompressions in his chest area. It's quite scary looking to watch (only coz I'm his mummy!) He also ends up with a rapid pulse and breathing with any touch stimulation so that's a no-no. Even nurses hve been limited to just 6 hourly nappies etc (unless of course needed). Poor little buggar can't even eat yet as they want his tummy empty so his lungs have maximum space. So he's getting glucose and a drip.

He's now on cpap to help expand his lungs and clear fluid if it's there (which the X-rays don't show any fluid or infection). Bloods say no infection too.
Paediatricians just let me know he's doing well on the cpap. Grunting has stopping and there's a little fluid coming from prongs around nose - which they say is good so I'm guessing it's from in his lungs.

Was so completely unprepared for this. A prem baby sure, but here I was worried his blood sugar was going to drop (which it's been awesome by the way).
They'll check on him again in a few hours and then see how he is in the morning.
Crossing everything for positive progress!!


My little oinker on CPAP.
