It really is terrifying. It also didn't help how the nurses treated me. They wouldn't let me do much of anything and when I did they corrected me on everything I did. Which I knew what I was doing. Yes I was a first time mom but my sister was a teenage mom and I helped her raise her son. So I had experience and I knew what I was doing. There was even one time when I was trying to breastfeed him because he had gotten hungry and the nurse came and took him from me and put him back in his crib and told me that I was messing up his schedule. I had gotten completely discouraged from Breastfeeding and I felt like a scolded child. I had never felt so humiliated.

@ingrambabiesmommy, I know exactly how that feels. I had my twin boys for the first two months of their lives until I decided adoption was a better option. but the smaller one on the right, Zayden, he was 3 lbs 6 oz. at birth and had a hole in his lung. he was in the NICU for 8 days too his brother, Kayson, was only in there for 5 days. he had no issues other then jaundice. it's terrifying having your babies in the NICU.

Thank you! I hope all goes well for you too! It's so scary worrying like we do. And the worrying never stops until they get here! Then we go through a whole different type of worrying. Lol. My son was only 3 lbs and 14 oz he had to stay in the NICU for 8 days. I know that doesn't seem like a long time but I promise you those were the 8 longest most dreadful days of my life.

I hope all goes well for you @ingrambabiesmommy I have to be sent to the specialist because of those boys being preemies too. I have to be watched. but its better safe then sorry.

They are so handsome! Good luck at the specialist! I'm having boy/girl twins! My first pregnancy was a singleton and he was a preemie. They had to take him early cuz the umbilical cord got constricted and he wasn't gaining weight. So they really wanna monitor the twins but my stupid insurance is messed up somehow so I can't go to the specialist until they get everything straightened out. I was supposed to have gone a week ago! So maybe we can wish each other luck! I hope all is well with our twinnies!

@lilybilly, I don't even know how because both of my biological parents (I'm adopted) told me there are no twins that they know of.

I'm assuming twins are common in your family which is so awesome!!!!!!

I know its crazy, and this time its girls.

You're having your second set of twins?? How special! And good luck :)

thanks they were adopted because at the time I couldn't take care of them. it was an open adoption so I still get pictures and eventually will see them again. I just don't want to go through what I went through with them and almost losing the little one on the right.

I hope all is well and you have truly been blessed 💕

they are adorable
