So um....yeah.....I'm a mom everyone!
Got up this morning and was notified shortly thereafter that my blood work from yesterday indicated elevated liver enzymes i.e. preeclampsia. Doc said we needed to deliver ASAP. Needless to say it has been a very surreal day! Had a C-section pretty quickly after getting to to hospital today. I was pretty nervous, but got through it well so far. Baby A (Lilianna) is 3 pounds 14 ounces and 16.5 inches. Baby B (Rosalind) is 3 pounds 4 ounces and 15 3/4 inches. Both cried right away when they were pulled out. They are so tiny! I haven't gotten to hold them yet as they are in the NICU and I have to be monitored for a while still before I can be moved.
Hopefully I will be able to go down in a wheelchair a little later tonight. I did get to go down to the NICU in my hospital bed to see them and touch them. One looks just like DH and the other looks like me. They are so different! Both babies were scored as very healthy and they are breathing on their own without assistance. We are probably looking at them being in the NICU for at least a month though. But that is ok - whatever it takes for them to eventually come home healthy. Any prayers for their continuing health and development are appreciated.
