    Benjamin Rhys and Emaline Marie were born Saturday, February 21 at 33 weeks. I went into the hospital Thursday with high blood pressure and on Saturday it spiked up very, very high. The babies were born 3 hours later. Ben is an incredible 6lbs even and Emaline is 5 lbs even. They are breathing room air, and starting feed via feeding tubes. Emaline is still on a bubble bi-pap, but Ben is off of his and not even on a nasal cannula. I'm so proud and happy to have such gorgeous babies, even though they decided to escape early

    Thanks everybody. I'll update with a birth story when I get a free second. All my time is spend either pumping or going up to the nursery til my nurse chases me into bed. My milk hasn't come in yet, but I'm getting a fair amound of colostrum to give them through their feeding tubes.


    Small update: Emaline is off her bi-pap and only on a tiny bit of supplementary oxygen. Ben is on a tiny bit of oxygen sometimes, but spends a good bit of the day just breathing on his own! With the bi-paps gone, we can see their precious little faces. Ben looks JUST like his daddy. Everyone who sees him says so. Emaline looks a lot like my dad and a bit like me. Ben has light brown/strawberryish hair and Emaline has lots of black hair that sticks straight up everywhere! I wonder if she'll keep it like my dad or lose it all and turn blonde like Ryan's side of the family. Both of them quiet down when they hear my voice and Ryan's spent lots of time singing to them whenever we can't hold them. They like that a lot. They're beautiful and I'm so in love already.
