Twins
Twins????? Lucky me! That is not what I thought when I found out at 10 weeks into pregnancy. I was 22 and trying to have 1 baby...not a litter!
I would never change it now, but boy, was I nervous!
I was the first of my friends to have kids, so no advice from them.
I had a great pregnancy, gained 48 lbs. and worked until 36 weeks, I was induced at 38 weeks and after 15 hours of labor , they were born by c-section.
Alexa weighed 5lb 13oz and was 18 1/2 inches long, and Brianna was 5lb 8 oz and 18 inches long. They were very healthy and slept through at 4 weeks, lucky me!
I really don't remember the first year, too busy and too much of a blur. My only regret was going back to work at 8 weeks, but I had to.
this was 2 weeks before delivery........WOW!!!!
My babes........
I returned to work as a hairdresser and where I worked allowed the girls in the nursery we built in the basement. My teen sisters would come and watch them.
When they were 7 months old, they stopped coming and I took them to my moms.
Here they were 2 months old......
And here they are at 7 years old.
And An addition to the family......
3 years later I decided to try again....but what if another set of twins??????
Oh well, try anyway and 9 months later Kayla was born. She was by c-section also and weighed 8lb. 5 oz. and was 20 inches long.
I was home with her for 5 months and how different!
I could actually enjoy her because I was less stressed.
She is an angel and is potty training!
