My son-in-law's cousin and her hubby were expecting twin girls in August. They were born almost 2 weeks ago at 29 1/2 weeks. One baby, Hope, is doing well, eating and growing. The other baby, Faith, has a grade 4 brain bleed on the left side of her brain. Tests have showed that she does have hydrocephalus. So far, her vitals are good and she is eating and slowly gaining weight. I think they are about 2.6 lbs now. The parents are asking for prayers for both babies, especially for Faith. As long as her vitals are good, she will stay in the NICU near where her parents live. If not, she will be transferred to Vanderbilt for possible surgey on her brain bleed. My heart is aching for them. They try to update daily on the twins. They are asking for prayers and for people to share the FB page they created to update people on the twins. Please pray and share for these sweet babies. Sharing a link (hopefully) for the page. If not, the FB page is the Trivette Twins. My oldest DD spent a month in NICU when she was born. I know several Peas have also had babies in NICU. It is something I would never want for any parent. www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093674122892 |

Wishing them all the very best each day and they grow and thrive.
My grandson was born at 29 weeks and is now 18 months and you'd never know...but the early days are very stressful...wishing strength to everyone involved.

Awe, I have been there done that. One of my identical triplets had a Grade 3+ brain bleed and was 2 lbs. 11 oz. She has many health issues and has had 3 open heart surgeries but she has done much more than we were ever told she would do. We were told she would never read, play a musical instrument, etc. She is almost 29, and she plays the clarinet, and she graduated college as a special education teacher with honors. She is now a special ed teacher in middle school for severe and profound kiddos. I believe her experience has shown her that these kids CAN do things, and she wants them to have the best life they can have.
I will be praying for them. I know the rollercoaster of all of this. She is free to reach out to me if she would like. PM me if so. Hugs and prayers!

sherri, I'm a two time NICU mama. We understand that unbelievable stress that comes w/having your infant in the NICU. It's surreal. My thoughts and prayers are w/this family and these two little ones. Grow and be healthy, babies.
