Hello, I have previously posted this on another section, but was advised to come along and repost here.
I'm on my second day at home now after being rushed into hospital last week with a bleed and ruptured waters. My twin baby girls decided that it was time to enter the world at 29 weeks. Both girls are doing well and are on the neonatal unit at our local hospital.
First little girl (2.7lbs) was born naturally with just gas and air, second one (2.4lbs) refused to come out and I ended up with an emergency c section. Now at home trying to cope with c- section recovery, some stitches down below from the natural birth, and the fact that my babies aren't here with me.
Husband is being a total rock who I couldn't live without, so I am very lucky in that respect, my mom is also being amazing but I just feel totally hopeless. I ache physically and mentally everywhere, I can't get comfortable to sleep, but am equally so tired. I'm trying to express milk to take in for my girls, I was doing so well with it even on the 2nd day post birth but now I'm starting to struggle, possibly because I'm so tired.
Has anyone else had experiences like this? How did you cope with it all?
Xx
