Dan Gross Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Congrats and prayers for you. One of my best friends had premie twins, in the 1.5 pound range when born. It was a long road home for them, but the boys are fine now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Avenger Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Congrats! Our twins were born in December right across the street at Beth Israel. You're in for quite a ride with two at the same time! Do yourself a favor and join up with MMOTA (Mass Mothers of Twins Association) - it a group for people who have multiples. PM me if you want to talk twins...

We had twins a few months ago. They came 6 weeks early...a little bigger than yours but not much. Once they start nursing normally they will gain about an ounce a day. After 3 months you won't believe they were ever this small. good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UConn James Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Mazel Tov! Garrison Keillor's ode to premies (and bear in mind, esp. for the meaning of "crappie," he's Minnesotan ).... I believe it's called "Jeffrey's Poem." When I first saw you, kid, you were tiny and thin And slimy and red and your head was mooshed in. I said to your mother, "He looks kind of sloppy, And a pound fifteen ounces ain't that big for a crappie." But something about you, the look in your eyes, Said you fully intended to grow to full size. They slapped your backside and you let out a cry, And I said, "We will keep him, at least we shall try." Some babies are born in nine months, by the clock, Some babies are born, and they sit up and talk. Some babies are born and no doctor is there, But some babies come in on a wing and a prayer. Poor little fetus as big as my hand. Poor little fish thrown up on dry land. Who came in late March though you had till July, Too small to live and too precious to die. They shipped you across to the big Neonatal Intensive Care Unit's computerized cradle. And attached you to wires and stuck you with tubes Monitored closely by digital cubes. And thanks to the latest neonatal therapeusis And regular basting with greases from gooses And your Mama's milk intravenously fed You did not fade away, you grew up instead. We'll always remember the months that you spent With tubes everywhere and hooked up to the vent And the trach in your neck, the wires attached, Sweet little baby only half hatched. I'll always remember each doctor and nurse in The NICU who helped make you a person. The kid who crash-landed, was carried away, Survived, and turns two years old today.

TigerJ Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Congrats. I'd be careful with the nurses in a Boston hospital though. You never know what they might do to a couple newborns if they find they are already Bills fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
