Praying for you, Alec and baby ferns! Can’t wait for them to be here! Hope you have a safe delivery! Can’t believe that you will get to meet them this Saturday! ❤️💕
Awh yayyyy!!! Will keep you all in prayer! My 2nd guy was born at 36wks 6 days and was 4lbs 4oz with undiagnosed pretty severe IUGR. Just like the meaning of his name, he was a fighter that the Lord saved. He latched immediately, nursed for 15 min the first night! At the advice of our nurse, we did skin to skin with him literally 20 hours out of the 24 hour day and he grew crazy fast. It was freaky having such a fragile, almost alien looking baby and I didn’t emotionally bond with him until probably 4 days after he was born. I’m def a “baby in my arms bond-er”. Praying for as much blessing on your babies as we’ve experienced with our Gideon 💗💗
Relax girl! My second daughter was born full term weighing 4 pounds (2kg), today she is 38 and never had any problems! So excited to meet these babies! May God bless you!
Your positivity throughout all of this is so inspiring! Attitude is everything and you are going to be the best mama to these babies! Praying for the best labor and delivery!
I can hardly wait until Saturday, Heather!! Good luck with everything!! I was nanny to a set of boy/girl twins where the little girl Stella, weighed more (6 lbs) and her brother Hudson, weighed less (5 lbs), so the opposite of your little ones! My dad was a fraternal twin and his Mom didn't even know she was carrying twins until they were born. Can you imagine the shock of that?? As a matter of fact, their birthday is today!! My dad would have been 91 and his brother is still alive!!
I had my son at 36 weeks! He last measured (the day I had him) 5 lbs 5 oz and came out 6 lbs 3 oz! I also had anatomy scans every 3 weeks. Good luck mama! Those scans aren’t always accurate.
So excited. You're glowing Heather. I can only imagine how excited you guy's are. Sending lot's of love any prayers for a,quick & safe delivery. Get that epidural & be comfortable. Keeping you guy's in my thoughts. You will be wonderful parents.
Just wanted to say that you are currently my favorite reality show. When I sit down to eat and want to indulge in some entertainment I watch you. (I use to watch Kelly Stamps but lately not so much). I hope your subscribers grow to 100k and beyond one day!! You are def amazing and all that you said is so true regarding the emotional wall. You are protecting yourself and it is sooo understandable. I always had this mindset that you don't count your chickens till they are hatched and find it weird how people just assume you are going to have a healthy baby as soon as you say you are pregnant. This wont happen to you but for example my sister had a stillborn 1 week overdue. So 9 months and 1 week. He looked perfect. Now I am even more in the mindset of don't count your chickens till they are hatched. You are super strong to cope the way you did through all you went through.
Those are good weight for 36 week twins. Like you said their estimates can be off. My ID twins were born at 35+6, no IUGR and weighted 4.3 and 5.5. Blessings to you on their birth/ labor and delivery.
Super excited for you. Listening to u I have to say my boys. Identical twins were born at 31 weeks 4 days & both of them were under 5 pounds. They stayed in hospital for 10 days. Not in special care. They are 18 next month & both over 6foot tall big healthy boys. So I have faith your babies will work out just the way they are meant too. Best of luck for the induction 💋💋
I'll be thinking of you on Saturday the 29th at 11:00 am. Hoping all goes smoothly. Looking forward to your next video and seeing your babies! So exciting!
Pray that you and the babies have a safe labor and delivery. Im pregnant with twins and im 27 weeks. The closer it gets the more anxious I am ! Good luck !
So excited for Saturday!! I will be sending best wishes your way for a smooth and “natural” delivery! No matter how they arrive I hope they are healthy and happy!!
I am also pregnant with twins 32 weeks happy for you and all my prayers to you to have a safe delivery. Take care and try to sleep tonight god bless you .
Yay! Praying it all goes well, and we'll see you in a few weeks ish when you feel up to vlogging again (few weeks to a few months lol whenever you're ready)
I felt the same way about my twins/bump, very detached. To be honest, I didn't feel that connection when they were born either. I thought there was something wrong with me. I think I was just so overwhelmed at the very beginning. But I can confirm, at 18 months, I love them so much it hurts! Wishing you all the best for Saturday. I'll be thinking of you!
So excited for you to finally meet your babies! I have been following you since you first announced your pregnancy and I am also only 6 days behind you although I probably won't be having baby until after my due date lol. But it has been an absolute pleasure in following along with your journey, thank you for sharing. Good luck for Saturday!!!
Yay i know your happy been there done that my twin boys will be 22yrs on July 1st they came at 35wks. Let people help if they offer. It won't last forever. I'm so happy for you and your husband ❤🌹
If it’s any consolation, I really struggled emotionally with pregnancy etc and then when he was born I didn’t have the baby blues as the pregnancy was so hard and depressing that once he was here it was such a relief. I felt emotionally better despite haemorrhages etc almost the next day after he came out. The hormones etc are still there but I just found post birth so much better than pregnancyX not everyone’s experience
I felt the same about my baby while pregnant.... it felt hard to be emotional towards her for me. I was still SO crazy protective over her and cared for her deeply.. That mama bear was there but it didn't feel like "lovey dovey".... it was a while honestly before I felt really in love with her after she was a born...I wanna say like a month....that's not to say I didn't love her..I would have died for her as I would now ...it was just a feeling that grew and grew and grew.....the end of my pregnancy was very stressful though as was the first month of her life so could have been that....either way you will fall helplessly in love with your beauties! I did feel guilty for this but I think your right it's probably more normal than we think!
your showing baby Love the second the babies started growing in your womb but don't be scared to feel that connection, but.I do het.what you mean! Prayers.to you hubby and babies, by the Grace of God you, and babies will overcome thia battle and all will be fine, you've got to have faith, pray and leave it on to God, in Jesus name.🙏🙏❤❤
Do you find it helpful to have an induction date? Or is it more anxious? I think I might find it helpful, so you get everything done at home and finished and ready- granted I’ve never been through an induction. Don’t worry, a ton of women need to see baby. Or even take months before they bond. Totally normal💕 hope everything goes smoothly for y’all!
You look incredible momma totally got the pregnancy glow! Pregnancy so suits you and you got the cutest bump! You are a beautiful pregnant goddess and could be a pregnant model! You should don the baby momma dance video and pre pregnancy clothes try on challenge video before you pop!
Did you choose to get induced or did your doctor decide for you ? I’m just curious to know I’m getting close … I’m 33 weeks and I really do not want to get induced at all , both of my babies are head down
@@HeatherFern totally understand your feelings!! And you are absolutely right that sometimes it takes awhile to feel a bond and love (especially if you’re a first time mum and it’s so overwhelming!) I have boy girl twins who are 2.5 and I wouldn’t say I felt ‘love’ for them until they were born - it’s just too abstract a concept when you haven’t had your own before I think. Once they were born they became my soul and I love them more every single day. Also - I totally get what you mean about building an emotional wall and not getting too attached. I have a baby girl who is 6 months old, she was also a twin and her brother passed away in utero at 16 weeks. We knew something was wrong from 12 weeks. I don’t think I processed losing him until we’ll after baby girl was born because I was just in survival mode trying to preserve the healthy baby I had inside. I also didn’t feel that attached to both of them throughout those touch and go weeks. Now my baby girl is the light of my life and my angel. You’re going to be an amazing mumma can’t wait to meet this twinnies!! 💞💞👏🏻👏🏻💙💙 best of luck for the birth xx
