Babies Came at 37wk 5days!

My birth story is pretty long so I will save it for later when I have more time to write. My girls came on Wednesday Sept 5th. Brenna was born at 9:41am and Brooke at 9:43am via c-section. Brenna was 6lbs even and 17 and a half inches long. Brooke was 6lbs. 11oz, and 18 and a half inches long. We were thrilled with how big they were :banana: Unfortunately Brooke had some problems with her breathing and she went to the NICU for an u/s and to be observed. Luckily the issue resolved itself quickly and she was able to come stay in my room after 18 hrs. of observation. They are both great eaters, I have been breastfeeding tandem and they are doing awesome. The c-section was a total breeze, but unfortunately the recovery was very hard for me. Overall things went really well, the babies are healthy and I feel very blessed for that. Unfortunately I haven't gotten much sleep at all the last 5 days, and my head feels like its throbbing all the time. My dr. let me stay in the hospital for 4 days so we took advantage of that and came home this afternoon. It's great to be home and to have my sweet little girls with me. I will post my birth story and some picts in the next couple of days Thanks to everyone for their thoughts and advice during my pregnancy, this site has been a great help to me.
