Our twins
Just wanting to share our story...
We found out in September we was going to be having a baby... I quit my job just a couple weeks later because I was going to be able to stay home with this baby thankfully. Later in October we had an extra ultrasound and got the shock of a life time.. there was two babies!! I cried and laughed knowing what was in store 🤪
The months went by.. We got a big surprise when we found out we was adding two more girls to the family... I couldn’t eat I was just trying to keep any liquid down to stay hydrated.. my Dr had home health come out and give me iv fluids and I was on a zofran pump for months.. The pump got infected and caused a staph infection.. which this is going to cause a big problem later on.. After that I decided I was going to survive without the pump for the next month.. all while tackling my 2 year old :)
At 34 weeks my BP started going up so I was put on bed rest to keep the twins in the longest we could..
May 7th I went in to have my girls at 36w +2. I went in and everything was going wrong from the get go I should of just went home. They couldn’t get veins on me anywhere once they could they would blow.. (I still have bruises over 2 weeks) finally after all that I go back to prep for my csection.. they could not get my spinal they opted to have me put to sleep... which after the digging in my spine I was ready for.. both girls was born at 9:32 they both went straight to the Nicu.. Adalane (baby a)was the worse off and had bubbled a lot after being born and Avianna (baby b) also had trouble breathing.. they took me to to see them just for a few mins.. Once I got to my room i started passing major clots and lost a ton of blood.. It was like an episode of Greys... nurses came running in... it was beyond scary... so it made me major weak and all.. (dr tried to get me to have a transfusion but I was too nervous to do that) Later that day Avianna was able to leave the Nicu and come up.. that night I was supposed to be getting to go see Adalane but the nurse comes in and tells me I can’t because of that staph infection I had months ago... I was completely heartbroken. A while later they come in and say that they got it approved so I could go see her. The Nicu was telling me that they had no issues with me coming but it was my nurses... the next more info I went to send Avianna to the nursery so me and Miguel could go to the nicu. They told me that she could no longer go to the nursery bc of that staph infection. I was so upset how was I supposed to go see my other baby if they didn’t let me do that (this is also after she stayed in the nursery that night so I could rest) I went on down to the nicu and Miguel stayed in the room.. the Dr came in and checked on me I told her my situation because by that point I was being treated like I had eboli or something.. they would legit suit up to come in the room.. after that point the dr was able to stop them from being like that.. and she got it to where Avianna was able to go back to the nursery at those times.. after that I was going to every care hour I could to the nicu for Adalane. After 3ish days at 2am I had the thought to go down and see her.. so I just done it.. it was hard to do the walk but I done it.. I’m so glad i followed that little thought... when I got down there they had removed her cpap to test her breathing and thank the lord she was able to stay off it. she did still have her Gtube but was able to move that day to the progressive nicu.. Day 5 I was discharged and it was the hardest thing to do.. How could I just leave my baby behind... I was very emotional.. we live over an hour away from the hospital.. so we started figuring out how to get a hotel because we just didn’t have the extra at that time.. people started sending us money for the stay and for the girls which I am beyond grateful and thankful for every single penny... I was posting things to sell after a few days and more people just started sending.. speechless is an understatement.. I had battled during my pregnancy that no one really cared because how sick I was (I know that isn’t true but that still was there) But then I seen how many people really cared some I hadn’t really spoken too.. I know God had his hand working on all this.. I know we wouldn’t of been able to stay without the help of people.. there would of been no way... we only had to come home one night and that was because Avianna had to go to her dr ap.. after a few more days in progressive nicu.. she was in a gtube.. Adalane started eating her bottles.. they told me they wanted to watch her 48hours without her tube.. one step closer to home.. the next morning the nurse called me and I missed the call but called right back.. she told me to pack up that hotel and come get my baby.. my heart was so happy.. I picked her up and my now family of 5 is home together and beyond blessed... Things may not happen the way you think they should but they always work out the way they need too.. I felt so much love during all this it just has left me in Aw.. I know people was praying because we was being for prayers for our babies.... I couldn’t respond to everyone that would message me because it’s been so crazy but I hope they know it wasn’t on purpose!
