Its a long story so here it goes...a couple of weeks ago we had gone for our 34 week ultrasound to check the growth of the twins..and i always look so forward to going and seeing them grow and just to watch them on the screen is so exciting! well when the ultrasound was complete the tech informed that my girls were kinda small for their gestation and they should be a pound heavier she says they were 4.2 lbs each! i was very upset about this news and i went home and stewed on it for a lit
tle, while that afternoon and then finally called the dr. to confirm if what she said was true well he said yes its true they should be heavier but its not a real concern, that im a little girl and i might just have little babies..and to be safe he was going to send me to the perinatologist to have a more detailed ultrasound. So we went and that too confirmed they were a little small but they were still in the safe zone and i would need to have an ultrasound and nst(non stress test) done every week to track their growth. So last friday i had an appt at the hospital for my nst, i took kortlyn with me, we were planning on going to coops game afterwards...well once we got there the babies had a different idea! so they took me into triage and hooked me up to the monitors, come to find my blood pressure is pretty high and would not go down with rest or laying on my left side.. then we come to find there is protein in my urine which is bad news and the dr. decided i needed to stay the night to be monitored. well when i woke satuday morning i had started having contractions pretty regular and my blood pressure was still pretty high and after 24 hrs i still had protein in my urine! so the dr. said we need to do a c-section tonight, and i said NO YOUR NOT! despite my previous post about being done..i was only 35 weeks and 4 days and i knew my girls were not ready for this world! my dr. came in special sunday morning to perform my c-section at 10am. At 10:33 am April 27th 2008 both my girls came into the world..yes i said both came and yes in the same minute..so thats kinda neat little story they can share, 
they were born at the same time...! after being so concerned about their weights and stuffing my face with food for a week trying to pork them up..they were just fine! Kynlee was born 5 lbs and 6 oz and Kaylee was born 4 lbs and 12 oz! so i had 10 lbs of baby in my tummy..holy smokes! because they are preemies they had some difficulty breathing and needed some help for the first night and now the only thing that keeps them from coming home is being able to feel those tummies with food! the dr wants them to eat 2 oz in thirty minutes or less and well with them being so small they tire easy and but kaylee is well on her way! kynlee has had some set backs and will be there a little longer, they have been in special care nursery or nicu for a week or 6 days. i spend as much time with them during the day as i can, friday was my first day out of the hospital, and it was really hard to be home while they were there! Those two beans are too precious and perfect for words, i am so in love! kortlyn wanted to name them pink and purple, so my sister made them cordinating beanies to go with their new names..kaylee is our pink baby and kynlee is our purple baby, its kinda funny that the only way most people can tell them apart, but me being their mom i dont need the hat!
