Today Was My Due Date!

Today was my due date. When I think about my Twin Pregnancy, it was the most amazing yet the most awful experience. I was amazed experiencing two beautiful humans growing inside my body. Their kicks, hiccups and weird wild movements was a great experience. I felt like superwoman carrying two babies inside me. Helping them grow, making sure I was eating healthy and doing lots of reading and learning about twins.

Yet, by week 26 I was SO OVER being pregnant! I had awful nausea from week 6, horrible heartburn, restlessness, and the worst pelvic pressure. I could barely walk!! I was on medication for the morning sickness and progesterone to help prevent early labor. Due to having a preemie with my first pregnancy, and the chance that twins are always early, I was told that progesterone can help reduce the chance of early labor (not the case for me).

This pregnancy flew by so quickly (I went into early labor). So today is my due date and having 7 week old babies seems wild to me!!

They are almost two months old, and are technically only supposed to be born today. We had a stressful first month. Juggling hospital visits with the twins, and making sure our almost four year old was also entertained and be attended to. Thank goodness for my wonderful family, who helped keep Ezra well entertained. Zeke and Emmy are doing well, growing each day and even though the first month was stressful and exhausting, I have been loving every moment of it!

Happy Due Date Ezekiel & Emelia
