I hate having to "explain" everything and it just makes me sad. My boys were born full term at 37w5d and I was so "proud" (smug) that I had made it that long and that they weren't in the NICU at all - and you know what - it doesn't/didn't matter. Medical problems can strike ANYONE no matter what things might look like at birth.<br /><br />It hurts a lot. I get it - even though we didn't have the NICU experience, I still see other twins born much much earlier than ours who had no developmental delay at all.Hopeful Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15339776324264791028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213274210281482944.post-65999945836387160892009-09-28T21:27:23.531-07:002009-09-28T21:27:23.531-07:00Oh gosh, I'm sure it must be difficult that th...Oh gosh, I'm sure it must be difficult that things are not perfect, but I'm sure there are other twin parents who didn't come at all because they didn't want to see all the healthy kids. Drake really is doing fabulously--maybe not perfect, but really, really good.Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189007616883663434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213274210281482944.post-73474321080487491012009-09-28T05:51:08.516-07:002009-09-28T05:51:08.516-07:00Kelly - I feel the exact way you do.

It's like I'm OK with seeing typically-developing singletons...but when I see twins that way, it's really hard. Especially when they were born early. <br /><br />And the dr's said the same about the boys - how big they were! So freaking what!?!? It didn't seem to make much difference.<br /><br />Sorry you're struggling but I get it.Caryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09106769763459813759noreply@blogger.com
