Here's a brief summary... My twins were
born august 9th at 5:53 a.M. They were
only 30 weeks--i had preeclampsia, so
that's why. I turned 17 on august 25th.
Both are doing good, are in incubators,
but got put back on c-pap (maybe will be
off in a few days again, we'll see).
Evelyn rose:
mei lin:
(pictures were taken before they were in
incubators and me being a dummy forgot the
camera when I went to visit today--the
hospital is 1.5 hrs. Away from me, so if
I forget it's a bit too late. Hopefully
photobucket worked okay.)
i also have a question. How long does it
take for a stretched stomach to deswell
and destretch? As for the rest of my
body, i'm actually pretty much back to
normal (because I didn't have that last 2
months and my leg and feet and hand
swelling is all gone from the
preeclampsia). I know I can't exercise
to firm up a bit again until after my 6
week checkup, but I still would like a bit
of the "squishiness" to go away.
Oh, and I had a c-section, by the way.
It was crazy having all those drugs,
you're really out of it! I don't think I
want to do it again. :?

Your babies are lovely. What are there
names?
It can take a few months for your belly to
get back to normal esp after a c-section.
As long as its not painful you are free to
start doing light exercise after 6 weeks

My 6 weeks isn't until september 21st
(that's my checkup), so I guess I have to
wait on the exercise.
Evelyn rose and mei lin are their names.
I think I labeled the pictures. :wink:

Oh yeah lol. I'm blind haha. You don't
need to worry about getting back into
shape yet. I didn't bother it just sort
of all fell off gradually.
Just concenrate on your beautiful babies
and you won't even notice the weight
coming off

Thanks. :d
i hope it all goes away that easily, lol.
But I don't seem to have a bunch of
extra, just the stretched/swollen part.
Not really extra fat. I think i'll be
okay. :)
