For those who have been following my other thread...

I started showing signs of infection early this morning and went into labour. Megan was born at 2pm. There was a lot of puss around her when she was born from the infection. They did try and resuscitate her but she wasn't strong enough and as she didn't respond after oxygen and surfectants we decided to let her go. She never really breathed on her own and died very quickly and peacefully in my arms. She is in our room tonight in a tiny cot.

Twin 2, imogen, was born at 2.11pm. She was whisked off into another room to be resuscitated and had already gone up to nicu before they'd finished working on megan. Imogen is 574g. It's early days and she is ventilated but on 21% oxygen, which is air, so encouraging. She's by no means out of the woods, her lungs are very immature, but a scan showed no brain bleeds as of yet. If she can make it past the next 72 hours, that's a good sign, but it's an hour at a time for now. The doctors have been quite negative about her chances, but hey, we're used to their doom and gloom now and are staying hopeful.

Thanks so much to everyone who has given their support over the last weeks.
