Happy Birthday, Trevor!!!!

 

That's awesome. I don't know why it took me until now to realize that your twins were born that far apart :fool:

Happy birthday Trevor!

 

Yayyyyy! Trevor's like, "it's about time!"

What was it like to have one baby born and another one still baking? And how cool that they each get their own special day.

 

:birthday: Trevor!

Hey Amy~ I am sure others have already heard the story, but would you mind sharing it...how the twins were born on seperate days. That's interesting.

 

:bday: Trevor! A sweet Valentine's boy :wub:

 

:wub: Thank you everyone for Trevor's bday wisehs.

:laughing: It's not something you hear of everyday so that could be why.

It was very weird to say the least. I just could not get over the drs. telling me they were keeping him in longer. And very hard since I could not get out of bed for anything until he was born. They will love having their own special days that is for sure, but it does make me a bit sad at times.

I don't mind sharing. Here is the short version.


Everything going fine until a routine appt. at 23w6d and at that appt. it was found that my cervix was short (it was nice and long 3 weeks before that) and that I was dilated to 2cm and there was a foot there, yikes!! So they sent me to the hospital to see if I was having contractions, which I told them I wasn't as I felt great and didn't feel a thing, hooked me up to the monitors and sure enough it was picking them up. So I had an emergency cerclage the next day (and the steroid shots thank goodness) and was told that should take care of it. I was released from the hospital 5 days later and they told me I was not having contractions, except by this time I was feeling something. I was sent home on total bedrest, that was Sunday. That week saw my reg. OB and high risk OB and was told everything looked great. Saturday, yes not even a week later, Emilie pops out at home feet first. :shok: I was 25w3d.

The paramedics arrived to fully deliver her, as I was not having contractions, and said the other baby was fine. I just kept saying "what do you mean the other one is not coming, twins come together". So I get to the hospital, of course totally afraid I'm going to have the other on in the ambulance, and was told they were keeping Trevor in as long as they could. I could not believe what they were telling me. I was on total, I mean not get out of bed for anything, hospital bedrest, and couldn't even see Emilie in the NICU for 9 days!!!

10 days later they checked my white blood cells, Emilie's placenta was still inside as they were afraid it could be attached to Trevor's, and was told they were on the rise and would have to take him via c-section, he was born on Valentine's day, at 26w6d.

Emilie weighed 1 lb. 10 oz. and Trevor was 2 lbs. 7 oz.

Emilie was on a vent for 4 days and Trevor NEVER went on one. I totally credit this to me receiving the steroid shots when I was in for the cerclage and thank God my OB had them done. I think this made all the difference in the world.

They both came home together on April 14, 2006, 5 weeks before their due date.

 

Happy Birthday!!! :birthday:

 

Wow, that's an amazing story. I think there is at least one other person on here with twins born on different days, but hers a born a few hours apart, not days. It's truly amazing how much difference that short time made for his health.

 

Happy Birthday Trevor :bday: That is so cool.. glad he can enjoy his day. Ive always found your story amazing

 

Thanks for sharing the story Amy! I have always been curious. That is truly amazing. I can only imagine how freaked out you were to see Emilie pop her little foot out.

 

:bday: Mr. T!!!!!

 

Amy, thank you for sharing your story :hug:

 

:bday: Mr T!! :bday:​
