My unexpected twin birth story...Whew man, this was a doozy! But they're here and healthy and such sweet babies! ❤️ 📌 TUTORIAL ON MY HAIR - • FAKE THE SALON! | Supe...
Baby, Kim sounded like a Southern auntie, sitting on the front porch in her rocking chair while sipping a glass of sweet after her C section. Those drugs brought out the spirit of the ancestors 😂... The babies are adorable btw!
@@diy-double6594it is, but black women have the highest mortality rate when giving birth. Do your research love. That’s what they meant by it being important
I had the same experience. I had my twin boys at 35 weeks. I was diagnosed with pre-eclampsia during my 35 week appointment and I sent to the hospital to deliver my boys. I had a great pregnancy, except my feet were swollen most of my pregnancy. They delivered the babies via C-section. After the took the last baby out, everything went down south....FAST! My liver enzymes went crazy. My urine looked like tea in the catheter. Something were going on with my heart. I was in the ICU for 4 days and in the regular room for 2. I also started hemorrhaging and almost needed a hysterectomy. I was a blood transfusion. Thank God and I am here and Thank God you are here.
Thank God for seeing you through all of this and for the birth of your babies. I had almost the exact same thing happen to me. The only thing different was I was only carrying one baby. I had blood transfusions twice in two days.
Whew we. Go Kim obviously the babies are gorgeous like their mama Congratulations to you and your boo on bringing these 2 new beautiful lives to the world. God bless you both . God was with you too the entire process. I have prayed for twins and have thought about every single possible way to deliver my future children if you are having multiples . I definitely say csection. Every woman should consider and imagine that plan even before she gets to the operating room. Especially women of color. Consider all angles, a doula, midwife, and if you know medical professionals personally call them up for second opinions. Lol ❤❤❤❤❤❤💕💖💞👶🏽👶🏽💖💕💕
Welcome to the twin momma club!!! It's 3 years later and I still look at my baby boy and girl, like "how did I do that?!" Congratulations and enjoy your beautiful baby boys!!💙💙
Congratulations, Kim! Girllllll, i just had a c-section on 12/29/23, and the way you described that spinal tap was exactly how I experienced it. I had a full-blown PANIC attack. I felt like I couldn't breathe, like I was going to die. They were very reassuring, and once my girl's daddy got in the room, I unexpectedly calmed down. But it was nothing like getting the epidural with our first daughter, and nothing like the emergency c-section that I ended up having with her. Also, this time, it took so long for them to close me back up because of the amount of scar tissue I had inside, so after my baby was delivered, I was still on the table for over a hour!!! I had to have medication re-administered 3 times because the spinal started wearing off, and I began to feel bits of the closing! 😮 Kim, God bless you and all the other women who have experienced childbirth. We are incredible for getting thru it all.
Wow your story sounds so similar to my 2nd c section, with the scar tissue and starting to feel them closing, my God. I don't understand how ppl could say a c-section is the easy way out. It is not!
I’m a nurse but not a L&D nurse. Your physician did the right thing as severe preeclampsia is extremely dangerous. Praise Yah everything went well. The babies are beautiful Edit: I’m a fraternal twin as well. They run in my family. I’m just over the moon for you🙌🏽
Thanks for sharing, my only concern is doctors not informing pregnant mom about pre eclaapsia until it happens. I experienced the same scenario. Only difference is when everyone step out the room to prepare for a c-section my baby decide to make an entrance into the world without medical intervention. So I was left confused, having vaginal birth was to dangerous and I need to do c-section now. Only for the baby to come vaginally
@@lashurediscussion4970 agreed especially with preeclampsia being more common with multiples. It’s so dangerous for the babies. I’m sure you were absolutely terrified. I’m glad everything turned out well for you.
@@lashurediscussion4970Oh wow! Your baby had other plans. 😂 I was surprised her doctor didn’t speak about protein in her urine sample because that’s usually a sign of preeclampsia and one of the reasons they take urine samples at each appointment.
@@lashurediscussion4970now this right here makes me wonder . It’s like they scare you and have you believing there’s no way you can have a vaginal birth and then a vaginal birth happens . So what do you even believe ?!
Hi Kim! I am a twin Mom myself (to a beautiful girl and boy) and had the EXACT same experience as you, but at 34 weeks. I had pre eclampsia, found by a regular doctor’s appointment where my blood pressure was very high. They took my babies out that day and I’m happy to say that they were perfectly healthy, thank goodness. They spent a few weeks in the NICU to get a bit bigger but were otherwise good. They are now 4 years old. Congratulations to you and your family! Sooo happy for you 🙏🏾❤️
This is my story exactly. Twins taken at 34 weeks 1 day because of pre-eclampsia. Found out I had pre-eclampsia at routine appointment and had to stay a week in the hospital until I made it to 34 weeks. One baby spent 3 days in nicu, other baby spent 12 days. The one who spent 12 days in nicu just came home yesterday. I’m so happy to have them both home!
Oh my goodness! I am so happy to hear your babies both made it home safely. One of the hardest things to do is to leave one baby at the hospital while taking the other one home. Glad that they are both reunited and wishing you and your family all the best 🙏🏾❤️
KIM GUUUURL!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂 This such a sweet story but guuuurrlll when you were talking while you were in recovery has me ROLLIN!!!! Lol, I'm SO happy for you guys!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️
Congratulations Hon!! They are beautiful! And you are GLOWING! I’m a NICU nurse, so about 80% of our babies are admitted early due to pre-eclampsia! It’s nothing to play with. I caution a lot of moms to get a handle on your BP, etc before pregnancy because it’s only going to enhance once pregnant. Very happy your OB caught it early enough and Listened! I’m So glad you are recovering well and healthy! And most importantly the boys didn’t have to come too early. I’ve had 3 c-sections and I’m here to tell you the 1st one is the Absolute worst!! Rest when they rest and take it one day at a time! Blessings on yall🖤🖤🖤
Can we just take the time to admire how beautiful Kim looks? Goodness. You don't even look like you had babies. I'm not gonna lie. I cried when the nurse brought the babies over for you to see them. I have one child and I had a c-section. I couldn't dilate for nothing in the world. I was knocked out but I do remember hearing him cry. I was in recovery for two days because my blood pressure high skyrocketed.
Congratulations 🎉! I'm so happy you and your babies are well. I had my youngest at 27 weeks. She was 1lb 4 oz. The MDs prepped my husband for us to not make it. The cause, pre-eclampsia. My daughter turned 23 on 1/22. Blessings upon blessings! ❤❤
You shared so much with us and I feel so blessed to have heard your amazing journey and see those handsome boys . I love how private you are with your family and life! Thank you kim for the glimpses you have allowed!
adorable babies! watching this brought back memories of my delivery, they took me from my high risk appointment across the tunnel to the hospital! no bag no prep, nothing! i was terrified! but my daughter was delivered alive and healthy, so i am grateful to the Almighty! blessings to you my Sister
LOOOOLLLLLL, I never heard anyone turn into a southern grandma on morphine. I am screaming and crying laughing. Thank you! I needed this laugh for real. Congratulations!! May the Lord continue to bless your family! The babies are absolutely gorgeous 😍😍😍
Isn't it ironic that we as mothers forget all the bad things we go through to bring forth life. I have had 7 kids and I always forgot about the last birth. My 1st was my only C-section. U are absolutely stunning after 2 weeks. CONGRATULATIONS Kim🎊🎉🥳💙💙💙!!!
I am in tears, I had an emergency c section with my first that was very traumatic. And watching this took me back.4 years later I’m pregnant again and hoping this time is just smooth. Congratulations to you and your family.
Wow this has me in tears. I had my daughter when I was 23 weeks pregnant . When the doctors told me they had to deliver my baby, I just started crying. It was February 2022 and my due date wasn’t until June 2022. I had to deliver her via c-section, they took her straight to the NICU, and she spent 5 months in the NICU. 4 months early! It was a traumatic roller coaster. But she’s a warrior and healthy happy toddler now. So happy you and your babies are healthy❤️
Hats off to any woman carrying multiples! I’m 24 weeks but measuring at 25 weeks. Only 1 baby and I am feeling miserable. I feel heavy and full all the time! It’s hard to get comfortable at night. Cannot imaging my feelings with multiples! Congrats, Kim!!!
Emergency c-sections are terrifying and so very overwhelming physically, mentally, and emotionally. So happy to hear you and your little ones are healthy! ❤
I'm glad your husband was able to capture these special moments for you. I know you were highly medicated, but it's going to be so beautiful sharing these moments with your babies even though you didn't remember those moments. Congratulations, Kim. 🥰 Side Note: The ice chips footage after delivery is hilarious. It's giving Baltimore Grandma vibes, lol.
Lmaoo yesss looking like somebody granny on a hot summer day after she just got done cooking for the family. Just laid out eating ice 😂😂 so glad she’s ok tho and was able to get the footage for the memories
Congrats! I’m also vegan and 9 weeks with MoDi twins. I’m so happy your babies are safe, healthy, and with you. Even if your delivery didn’t go according to plan, I’m happy you and the babies are safe. That’s all every mother can pray for. ❤
I understand why you were overwhelmed, trust me I had a emergency C-section with my now 13 year old son. Having another scheduled C-section two months from now. Things don’t always go how you planned. They say, “if you want to make God smile, tell him your plans” I am just grateful you had such an amazing team of Dr’s from your OB to your delivery nurses. God bless them you made it out with both your babies ❤
What a birth story! I had sudden preeclampsia with my first and had to deliver emergency C-section at 33 weeks. It was so scary, especially as a first time mom! I have 5 kids now, and thank God, never got it again 🙏🏿! Your sons are gorgeous 😍! Pray you rest and recover well momma ❤! Thank you for sharing and congratulations to you and your family 🤗🎉🎊!
Congratulations! I’m a twin mom too and the shock never goes away. They just turned 1 and I’m still in awe that I made two babies at the same time lol. I have a similar birth story minus the preeclampsia, but I’m glad you and the babies are doing well now. Btw my mom met you in target a few weeks ago, she introduced me to your channel 😊
That condition, more common than we would like to know. Nearly lost my third grandchild and daughter in law because the nurse or her doctor wasn’t visual-ant enough to take charge and send her to take the baby. Congratulations to you and your twins. I have had the blessing to receive twins myself. Boy and girl. Good luck to you and family. 🎉
Kim this video warms my heart in so many ways! I haven't even finished it yet, but to see you on the delivery table and in recovery made my mouth drop because those are such raw moments of your life. I am so glad you are sharing this story with us.
Im glad you and your boys are all happy and healthy! My twins are two now, and I still can't believe I had them, so the feeling of disbelief stays for a while. Twins are so much fun! Congratulations 🎉
Congratulations, Kim!! I'm so very proud of how you "rolled with the punches" during delivery. Child birth rarely turns out the way we plan, but it's all good when you have two very beautiful babies to show for it. May God continue to bless you and your family. Congratulations.
Now, Kimberly. I don't mean to laugh at your pain, but guuurlll...that morphine talk had me weak. 😂 Congratulations on the delivery!! They're SO handsome and adorable!! 😊
Fun fact, in my culture the twin that comes out second is said to be the older one because they make way for the younger one to come out first lol. Your twins are absolutely beautiful. Congratulations girl ❤
Congratulations Kim! Please continue to check your blood pressure in the morning and before bed. Keep a blood pressure log (they have free printables online) at home just to make sure you don’t have any spikes. Postpartum preeclampsia is also a thing it’s rare but seems to be increasing among black mothers. Also keep documents of your labs/urine test.
Great advice. I'm 3 months postpartum. I also had severe pre-eclampsia at 35 weeks and had to do an emergency c -section. I'm still monitoring my blood pressure and have to report to my doctor every month end. 🇩🇲
Yes, please stay on top of that. I had post partum pre-eclampsia and was hospitalized for a week when my baby was one week. It was super scary but God!
I’ve had two c-section and it can be overwhelming the whole process. Especially for the first time. Congratulations, they are beautiful. We give God all the glory you and the babies are safe and healthy. I’m actually surprised at your doctors initial concern of preeclampsia, then sending you for labs where you had to wait three days for results. Rather, then sending you to the hospital to get labs right away. God was in control. 🙏🏽💙
"Eyes getting a little low...speech getting a lil sluuurry....my neck had a lil crook in it, I made it though" 😂❤ Awh baby that was so funny. You was giving me big momma vibes!! I'm so happy for you, my first was a C-section and my second was a V-Bac but you did such a good job. The main thing is like what you said the babies are here, they are healthy you are in good spirits and God is so good!! CONGRATULATIONS 👏🎉 🍼
Sis, THANK YOU for sharing with us…What a Beautiful Story and TESTIMONY because that’s a medical emergency. God is so good and i’m so happy that you and the babies are all doing well. May GOD cover you ALL. 🙏🏾🙏🏾💜💜💜
OMG Kim your story sounds so much like my story October 4, 2023! I was diagnosed with prenatal hypertension at 37 weeks pregnant. I went in for a routine checkup and was told to go to the hospital for labs because my blood pressure was so high by the next day, I had to have an expected C-section. Praying for a swift healing for you! So glad you are doing well you look great!
Congratulations!!!! This story is taking me down memory lane 🥺 I was originally scheduled for a c-section but I had to have my daughter a week early because of preeclampsia. I was shaking so back going into the operating room. Unfortunately, I still had post-preeclampsia and had to stay in the hospital for 4 days. Praise God for 2 healthy babies and a healthy mom!!!
C-section recovery is a whole different level 😢so glad you’re feeling better and the babies are good. Sending blessings and prayers to you and the family
It's crazy cuz I had twins and had a c section and to me that was ok I felt some pain after but tolerable.now I had a vaginal birth 2 years ago with my son and to me that shit hit different and was more painful after then the c section I had had years previously.
I remember having to walk in there by myself when having my twins. I literally cried. I too didn't know they would be delivered that day. It was overwhelming. C-SECTIONS AREN'T FOR THE WEAK BABY!!😂 They are so beautiful Kim!! Congratulations 🎊
I loved hearing your labor and delivery story, Kim! Your boys are beautiful and you look amazing as well. I have no doubt that taking such good care of yourself played a huge role in how wonderful your pregnancy went. You made it look so easy. Preeclampsia seems to be so common now, and I'm happy your doctor caught it when she did. Having a caring medical team goes a long way. Thanks for sharing with us.
CONGRATULATIONS, Kim!! They’re so cute! I’m grateful that everything worked out in your favor and you and your babies are healthy & safe!! 🙌🏾 Enjoy your amazing new adventure!
Congratulations Kim and family! The twin boys are beautiful! Your post delivery morphine talk was hilarious, sounding like the tipsy auntie at the cookout. Lol 😂 But seriously, so glad you had a safe delivery. Even though having a C-section isn't what you originally planned it worked out for the best. Thank God all 3 of you are home and healthy. That is all that truly matters. ❤
OMG! The twins are so cute. You were too funny while on the drugs. If I had my eyes closed, I would've thought it was a different person talking. But I'm so happy for you and your family. Congrats!
Kim, you're just so down to earth. Thank you for allowing us in your life. The babies are so adorable and so blessed to have you for a mother. May God continue to bless you and your family.
I have 1 child, daughter in her 20's. I had no reason for watching your video. I had watched one hair video of yours before this and immediately subscribed to your channel. Went to see what else you had and landed on this video. I figured I'd watch a few minutes and move on, but you are so captivating and enthralling that I watched every second. You have a way of keeping interest in every word. I was emotionally with you and so happy for you. Plus I learned things i didn’t know. Beautiful video. You are a beautiful soul. I have NEVER commented on a video before.
OMG KIM!!!! This made me cry 😢 but excited at the same time!!! Congratulations 🎉 and they look just like your older son❤. You definitely went through a lot at the end but you made it and those babies made it and you’re healthy!! That’s a blessing! So happy for you and your family💙 and thank you for taking us along on this journey 💐🩵
Congrats, Kim!! And thank you for sharing this part of your life with us!!! So grateful to see the boys! You DID that! You are a warrior and kudos to your doctor for recognizing your symptoms. That is such a blessing! You look beautiful!
Congratulations Kim, the babies are soo adorable! 🎉🎉💙💙 What a wild delivery story, full of emotions. Thank God your Dr. acted quick and prioritized your health. I’m glad you and the twins are healthy and happy! 🥰🙏🏾
congratulations to you and your family! Thank God the preeclampsia was caught timely, and that the c-section and recovery went well for you and your beautiful twin boys 👶👶 the morphine footage was priceless lol-- what a blessing overall 🙌 May God continue to cover and shine His face upon you& your fam!!
Congratulations 🎊. That baby cry. So Sweet. Became a Twin Mom at 32. FraternalTwins delivered safely at 37 week via C-SECTION., 1 of 3. Baby A was Breech. That medication and surgery is SOMETHING ELSE. I'm glad I was able to stay awake for all of them. I'm glad to hear all went well. Beautiful babies. You look amazing. WELCOME TWIN MOM❤
Awww Congratulations 🎊 I’ve been waiting for this video. So happy everyone is doing well, but knowing how discipline and organized you are about your lifestyle plan, I know that huge curve ball was a lot but I’m so excited to watch the babies grow into their own personalities 🫶🏾
Congratulations Kim! So thankful the babies arrived safely and you all are healthy and well. I have been watching you channel for years and just seeing all the positive transitions makes me proud. May the Lord continue to cover and bless you and your family!!🎉🎉🎉❤
Omg Kim I so feel you! I went through the same emergency C-section with my first. I was freaking out and literally shaking... I see your hands were shaking a little while on the table. From the anesthesia to the birth was the most nerve raking thing I've ever experienced. But you and your babies made it through, thank God!!!🙌
CONGRATULATIONS 🎉 I'm 29, had a vaginal birth with my first son, and just delivered my baby girl by C-section. You described it perfectly! I can relate, after the first one i was up the next day, with the c-section it hurt to even laugh! The surgery itself is a stressful experience, i still have flashbacks. Sending you positive energy and great health on you and the twins journey!
Congrats on your babies and that you had a good doctor that cared enough to see the signs and take care of business. Many blessings to you and your family!
