Excuse my late postings.
Alot has happened in the past few weeks and those of which range from up and down, happy, sad and nerve wracking.
Let's see, we shall start with the good and work towards the bad because isn't that what we always want to hear first the good? or would we rather hear the bad news first so the good news can cheer us up after. Anyhow I'm starting with the all around so the story can fall into its place.
Ten days Postpartum. That means the arrival of two healthy 38 weeker twin boys. I say 38 weeks because as most know twin pregnancies rarely make it that far. ( They are ansy fellers) They have already given me and their daddy the run around. One was 7 pounds 4 ounces at the time of birth, while his little brother was a whooping 5 pounds 13 ounces. I know discordant.
The reason I say that they have given us the compete run around is they both dropped weights in the beginning and then one gained while the other lost more, and then vice versa for a week straight in and out of the Peds office with jaundice and weight checks every 48 hours. Now that they are both gaining were moving on.
I had a C section, (one of my twins now has night terrors because of his traumatic birth experience) So I had a weekly incision check, that looks good, it better cause after the amount of surgeries that I've endured so far in my 22 years of life I know all about post op care ( my gallbladder removal hurt worse this time around) Any way I know "Maddie get to the damn point" Well you know how they say that if it's not one thing it is another, well that is definitely the case here. Went in today with high blood pressure, headaches, dizziness etc. So had some labs drawn. There is a possibility of postpartum preeclampsia. I know I know. "What the hell is that?" That's what I said considering preeclampsia usually only happens in pregnancy not after. That's how rare, if your that curious do some research, it's dangerous is all I'm going to say.
Now on top of my two little additions I now have to dove more into my heath and make sure that I'm not dealing with some severe health issues that I had no idea of.
On the positive note the day after my twins were born, while laid in the hospital bed, my diploma came in the mail and was brought to the hospital, surprise to me. Official graduate and mom of three.
Yes, 22 is young for all of this but nothing holds me back and like I've told others. I may be young and have had my babies young but Im not letting it stop me from chasing life and staying focused on me, What's their excuse?
Thanks guys,
Maddie
