Tia, Yes I am actually mostly pumping because Jace wasn't eating and lost alot of his weight so I had to pump so I knew exactly what he was getting. It would take me sometimes up to an hour and a half just to get 1 1/2 ounces in him! It was very difficult. Then from spending so much time worrying about him Jacob started losing alot of weight so I started pumping for him as well! They are both still on the breast but they also get a bottle of breast milk at each feeding because thats what we had gotten used to.
Hopefully you will get some rest!
Jamie

Hi Jamie,
Sounds like you have your hands full, but you have the hang of it. With all that's going on I know you are just so happy to have them home. I can just picture how cute they must be.
I went to the peri yesterday and the tech said that my cervix was still close but she saw some fulid and thought that i may be the first sign of pre term labor so i had to go to my ob today and a test call FFN I get the results tomorrow. Never a dull moment

Wow I hope its nothing! I went in for leaking fluid and it turned out to be urine from the babies pressing on my bladder! There was no urine smell so just to be safe they tested me. You are so right never a dull moment!
I tried to put a picture up of the babies but it didn't work. So I will see what I can do. Does anyone know how to put up a picture???
Jamie
p.s today is my actual due date!!

Destiny~ I have a question for you about your cervix issue. I am almost 17 weeks pregnant with twins. At my last high risk appt on Wed. my cervix had shortened to 2.7 from 4 last appt 3 weeks ago. When did they decide to sew your cervix ? Was it because of it shortening? And what week were you? I go back next week to have it checked again but for now I am on bedrest. Any advice? Good luck with your test and hopefully it wont be PTL. It is always something to worry about with pregnancy, isn't it?
Anybody else have any advice or know anything about this?

Michelle, Honestly I feel that the twins are not much different than one baby!! I think if you have them on the same schedule its no sweat! It takes longer to get feedings and bath time done but I feel like all my worries of going insane are gone. (well until they are more active anyway) We have had a couple looong nights of cries but that is to be expected even with one baby! So I think if you just keep in mind that whether its 1 or 2 that its tough anyway with a newborn!
What ever happened with the babies size or heartbeat?
Hi Jenny, Hope your feeling better!!

Hi Jade,
Happy Holidays.
I found out about my cervix on my 20 week at my peri. I do my u/s at a different facility other than my ob because of my insurance. I was then admitted the same day. it was scary, but i am just happy they caught it in time.
From what hear getting your cervix stiched is not the procedure that most women want and some dr won't advise, so if your cervix is shortening stay completely off your feet, also you my want to try a belly band to hold your your tummy. so keep those leg up at all times.
when I went to the dr at 16 weeks my cervix was long and fine and 4 short weeks later pooof gone no cervix at all. so it good that you notice the shortening now.
You will be fine just being on bedrest.
