We joined the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk. Our perfect twins were born at 33 weeks + 6 days due to twin B experiencing PPROM (previable premature rupture of membranes) at 19 weeks. Our miracles stayed put until a scheduled delivery date, but not without the medical interventions we needed to help them, and to keep mom healthy throughout the process. Kendyll, AKA mom, went through a combined 12 week hospital stay full of antibiotics, steroids, IVs, blood draws, ultrasounds, and scares. Twin A had a 12 day stay in the NICU with CPAP, blood draws, and a feeding tube, and twin B had a 51 day stay in the NICU intubated with various ventilators, eventually weaning to a nasal cannula, a PICC line, chest tubes, 1 blood transfusion, and a feeding tube.
With the help of the amazing NICU doctors, nurses, therapists and specialists our boys are able to be home with us today.
