rosie Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) Had a text this afternoon to say that Mrs G506 was taken down to surgery for a C section. At about 5pm William Edward and Ethan Michael arrived :laugh::laugh::laugh: They are several (about 7) weeks early and are currently in the neo natal department but both are settled, G506 has gone down to see them so am expecting a report soon. Please join me in raising a glass for the family. chin chin Must admit I am chuffed to bits for them and teary eyed Just found out that one boy is 4lb 4ozs and the other is 4lb 12ozs (a good size for prem twins!!!!!)

Tony B Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Rule of thumb: They will be kept in till the full peiod of incubation. Take as much advice as you can from the SCBU staff, they will give a lot of good advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
