Twin-To-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS): Nicole's Story
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- After a long IVF journey, Nicole and her husband were elated when they found out that they were expecting twin boys. Their world would soon come crashing down after the boys were diagnosed with twin to twin transfusion syndrome.
After weighing up their options, they decided the best choice was to undergo a highly specialised operation at The Royal, the only hospital in Sydney able to perform this lifesaving surgery to save both boys.
Nicole's twins were born at 29 weeks underwent months of care at The Royal's Newborn Intensive Care Unit. They are now healthy, thriving boys.
The Royal has a long and proud heritage in Australia as a pioneer in women’s and newborn health and leads the way with research and clinical practices that have been replicated around the world.

What beautiful children ❤. My father was born in 1942 as the surviving twin from a twin to twin transfer . At the time, little to nothing was known about this condition so Dads brother did not survive even though he was over 7 lbs. Dad, by sharp contrast, weighed 1 pound 1 oz. They were born at home in a poor farming community and the doctor didnt hold much hope for Dad. He told my Great Grandmother to make him warm and comfortable that he wouldnt survive till morning. My Gran told the doctor where he could stick his ideas and wrapped Dad in soft lambs wool , tucked him in her best roasting pan and put him in the warming oven of her huge old wood stove. (A sort of cupboard built into the stove away from the fire where food was kept warm). She fed Dad withnan eye dropper and he lived in his snug little nest for the first 6 months of his life. People came from all over to look at the impossibly tiny baby sleeping in a roasting pan 😂. Today, Dad is 81 and one of the tallest men in his family! ❤
Wow, what a story your family has. Is it ok if I ask if you Dad’s twin was born alive? Do you think your Dad was the recipient or donor?
Wow. The idea of a tiny baby sleeping in a roasting pan is so interesting. I’ve heard of women in the past that would use a drawer taken out of their bedroom chest-of-drawers/dresser, but never of something for an even smaller baby.
A real life Tom Thumb.
Magnificent !
Alleluia Abba !

This happened to us. My daughter lost the first baby in utero. The second baby was 17 ounces at birth and spent five months in the NICU. She made 5 pounds, they sent her home with no apnea monitor. She died two weeks after coming home, from SIDS, they said. After breast feeding (pumping) and bonding with her for 5.5 months. My daughter was inconsolable, and losing two babies altered her deeply. She has a little girl now, and that baby girl healed her heart. We are SO thankful.
That’s heartbreaking! I’m glad she has her little girl. God bless you!
I'm so sorry for your losses. Thank God for that beautiful daughter and granddaughter!
I’m so sorry for your families loss. May this strength the bond with future family members
I am so sorry for your family's loss.

I sadly lost my two little boys to TTTS. I'm so happy the doctors were able to save your lovely boys❤️
I wanted you to know after reading your reply to the video, I prayed for you, & your beautiful babies. May the Lord comfort you & make his presence clear he is with you. God Bless!
So sorry for your loss!
I am so sorry for your loss.
Sending you a big hug
I'm sorry, I'm not trying to sound rude but I genuinely am wondering why the bigger twin didn't survive?
I’m a NICU nurse and there’s so much we can do now. The smaller ones usually end up being very feisty. Big attitude in a tiny body. They catch up to their sibling surprisingly quick.
Thank you for all you do
My sister and I had TTTS and she survived as well. We were born in the early 1990s. There’s only one picture that was taken a few days after our birth and while we were both very small, I was much smaller. I was pale and lifeless while she was red all over and her head was huge. I needed blood transfusions and she had to have blood drained. We have been through so much together. She’s my best friend.
My daughters had it too. And like you mentioned one was bigger and VERY red while her twin was so so pale and smaller.
I'm so happy that you both survived!!❤❤ I too am from the early 90s.😊
My identical now 26 year old sons also had TTTS. We were number 66 of the laser surgery done by the inventor of this life saving procedure.
His name Dr. Julian Delia.
He fought to have his amazing technique over the placenta recognized as the life saving procedure it is.
All the doctors using this procedure have him to thank.
My twin identical twins past away with this same syndrome on March 6, 1989. They would have been 34 years old now. I'm so thankful for your story and your boy's are beautiful and amazing.
I'm so sorry for your losses. I hope you are well.
I’m so sorry for your losses 😢
Thank you so much. My girls were so sick inside of me and at one point I was seeing specialist often. Back then 34 years ago they didn't know much about it. After the passing of Kayla and Kelsey I made a decision that an optopsy be performed so that in hopes this would help other families in the future and there would be a cure to understand stand this. I believe in my own way that they did, I found out so much myself of this and after all this time I see miracles like what these parents and babies went through and they are here today. My girls will live in my heart forever. I have Three grown children now and eight grandchildren! I am truly blessed!😇🙏💕

My 26 year old identical twin boys had twin-twin transfusion syndrome. We had an emergency c-section at 33 weeks. They were 2 lbs 3 oz and 5 lbs 11 oz. They are both healthy men now. They told me to prepare because they didn't expect them to be born alive.
My identical boys with TTTS are 16 now. Born at 31 weeks. One 4 lbs the other 4.7. They are both healthy and strong now. But it was a rough start. I instinctively ate milkshakes and cookies everyday last few months of my pregnancy. And now Ive learned that TTTS calls for a very high calorie diet.
It’s amazing how the body tells us what it needs in an emergency.
why lie to strangers on the internet? is it an attention thing?
@@ppstorm_ I think you are in the wrong comment area. You seem to be mistaken.
@@marleeamato4944 tell kevin to stop talking to my daughter, she is only 13 years old
I’m a triplet- born at 29 weeks. My brothers are identical and one of them needed surgery. I weighted about as much as a bag of flour. Now we are all happy and healthy ❤ what a beautiful story
Ayyy, I weighed as much as a bag of flour too! Me and my twin sister were supposed to be triplets but the third egg didn't have a heart beat.I was very under developed and my identical twin sister took care of everything for me. A couple of weeks before we were born, doctors did a surgery to remove TTTS basically, but when that happened I didn't have much blood and my sister had lots. When we were finally born a month early, I was blue, and my sister was red. we had to stay overnight with my mother because we were born via c-section and I was very underdeveloped. Now I am healthy with just a couple lung spasms every couple years or so and live a great life with my sister. 😎👍✨
@@OrangePluminaid wow! That’s an amazing story! I’m so sorry the little egg didn’t make it ❤️
How wonderful!!❤
@@OrangePluminaid I'm sorry about your triplet but am so happy that you and your sister are ok.
hats off to two wonderful parents who never gave up on their children. beautiful story
❤
I was diagnosed @29 weeks, and my twins were delivered about 30 hours later. My donor twin passed away in my arms 3 hours post delivery, and my recipient twin survived and is now a beautiful 22 year old young lady.
I remember the silence when my little twin Devon Grace was delivered.
And I remember the angel babies in the NICU during the 8 weeks my survivor needed in hospital post birth.
It was the most bitter-sweet, life changing period of my life.
But I do feel so blessed
I had to twin boys with this💔 Spencer lived 16 hours & Samuel lived for 3 days😇😇 They are my angels❤❤❤❤
Hugging you ❤
It's truly amazing what doctors can do these days! It's so great that you never gave up on your boys! It's incredible that babies are so resilient and strong to keep fighting to live through something so intense!
My identical twin boys were born at term when I had just turned 17. I'm lucky, borh boys were healthy and good. Today they are 39, and I have 5 beautiful sweet granddaughters. I could not ask for a better life. ❤
I must share this with you I had just turned 17 and 4 months later my first child a beautiful girl was born she has 3 children my second child also a girl was born 17 months later she has the one son they were pregnant together and the boys are 20 days apart now 9 years old well they did the math and discovered I was only 17 when I had a baby....the one said that's only 1 year older than my oldest grandson and the other one said Jaja (that's what they call me) must be an alien 👽 💙 😅😅
@@lauramaclagan3838 that is wonderful! Let me tell you what, being a single mom of twins is very hard. Both have mental health issues
What a FANTASTIC MOTHER!!! I’m SO PROUD of you!!! I’m thrilled that everything turned out alright! Dad had so much faith that everything was going to be ok. What a GREAT HUSBAND!!! And your sweet little girl!!! Your beautiful family is richly blessed! Simply AMAZING!!! 🎊 🎉🥳
Our daughter at the age of 22 was pregnant with identical twins, a miracle in itself as she had had a tube removed due to an eptopic pregnancy and was still pregnant with the twins. At 17 weeks she was diagnosed with TTTS, had laser therapy and lost one a few days later. This in itself is also heart breaking, having both twins scanned each time she went for a check up until Mark was born and then Jack who had not survived. Mark is going fine, but as pekka and speech problems but he is our miracle and a huge blessing.
I’m so grateful your beautiful boys survived! My heart aches for those who lost twins to TTTS!!
Our beautiful TTTS boys were the New Year’s Babies in 1980 in a small community in NE Minnesota. Born 18 days early via natural childbirth, Aaron weighed 6# 9-1/2 oz & 19”. 5 min. later, Ryan-in fetal distress- arrived and weighed 3# 14 Oz. and 17”. The attending pediatrician deemed him “a fighter”!
It would be 2 years until we learned about TTTS.
Now married and fathers of their own daughters, they are indeed a miracle!
I also delivered a set of twins with ttts! It was 1963 and I knew there was a problem but it was never explained to me. I was very young and the circumstances around my pregnancy were terrible. My twins were adopted by a, what I now know, a lovely beautiful couple. It has only been 3yrs ago that my boys were brought back into my life by the grace of my Heavenly Father! Sorry, didn’t mean to go on like this. What have found out is because of the ttts they never left the hospital for 4 mths. Thank you for this information!
I'm so glad they had a good life. I hope your life became easier.
This is such a beautiful story. God is good.
How sweet of you to give another family such gifts!
I’m so glad your kids had a good life and that you’re in their lives!
Were you an unwed mother?
What a beautiful story - and happy ending! Thank you for sharing your miracle and beautiful family with us!
So glad they both survived. Life without your twin is hard. My twin sister was stillborn and I was 2 months early weighing 3lb9. We don’t know why my twin didn’t make it, she didn’t even get a name because it just wasn’t a thing but I named her Aimee.
Lost my twin girls to TTTS at 17 weeks six years ago. I mourn those little girls to this day and wish I could have had a chance to be their mom.
You Are their mom
Sorry for your loss. The same thing happened to my sister except she lost her twin boys at 13 weeks.
MyTTT boys were born in 1998. I lost my donor twin at 30 weeks and my recipient twin was born by emergency c-section a week later. My living son was 4 pounds at birth, he is now 190, over 6 foot tall and I love him dearly, he holds my heart!
As the grandmother of out TTTS girls we prayed non stop and at 28 weeks our darling girls were born. One darling had CP but we fought hard to learn all the steps to her care. Her twin always had a mental connection and would warn us when a seizure was imminent. Learning to care for a handicapped child didn’t prevent our deep love for this truly spirited non-verbal soul. She sadly passed in 2021. She was almost 17 years old.😢
Such a beautiful family, they are blessed to have you as a grandmother! A praying grandma yields much fruit :)
God, thank you so very much! This is so fantastic. I miscarried two sets of twins. This story makes my heart sing!
Bless your beautiful heart! I am so sorry for your loss. ❤
My daughter had this happen. Both twins were delivered. One twin was in level 2 the other ICU. Today they are 25. God is good. I believe in miracles.😊
I have identical twins and TTTS was one of our greatest fears. I am so glad, that everything went fine. They even were almost identical at birth at 36+0 with 2,5kgs. I love them ❤
My daughter had twin to twin transfusion. They were born at 26 weeks. Dustin was 1 lb 8oz Dylan was 1 lb 4 oz. Dylan was born with CP. They are 21 years old and very healthy. Nicki didn't have the option of surgery so they took out 2 liters of fluid every week until her placenta started to fail. Then they did a c section. Dylan had a 4 grade brain bleed and had a shunt put in his head to take off extra fluid at 1 day old. Thanks to all the doctors nurses and God they both are very healthy happy young adult men.

THE GREAT PHYSIAN. OUR LORD AND SAVIOR💜🛐✝️👨👩👦👦🧚♀️
I am so happy that the twins managed to survive TTTS and are still going strong despite all the odds being against them, it is truly wonderful to see this! I am also very glad that their sister did not suffer the same problems and was delivered naturally at full term, I know she's obviously not a twin, but you get what I mean, as well as the parents being such warriors also. Also, I find it really sweet how you can still see the size difference between those boys even now they are in school, you'd certainly know who was who despite being twins! Great job to the hospital as well of course, they clearly did a tremendous job at looking after those boys and their mother whilst there, because both twins are still alive today!
This brought back so many memories of when I was pregnant with my twins.. we didnt have twin to twin but twin b had a slim chance of survival due to heart and lung diseases, we also got asked about aborting her and it could possibly cause issues for twin A (they arnt identical and they had their own sacks and placenta..so very different to your boys in that way)..but i felt the same feelings as you talked about..how could you let one go and have the other, knowing you let one go..I wouldn't be able to cope. Come delivery day the girls were born and I had that same goal all i wanted was to hear twin b cry..she made a squeaky cry and I knew she was fine. The twins are our 3rd and 4th babies. They are now 21 months and twin a is a little pocket rocket and twin b has her health issues and chromosomal abnormalities, 24/7 oxygen but she is smashing goals and the sweetest thing! Twin a was born 2.2kgs and twin b was 1.6kgs..born at 34 weeks..
I'm so very sorry you went through TTTS. I did as well with my boys in 1993. Thankfully, I was an inpatient & 34 weeks when they discovered the TTTS. After about a month in the NICU, they grew into strong, healthy boys. I also had a giant baby (9lb 2 oz) 3.5 years later
Congratulations! And you made me laugh with the “giant baby” description! I bet it seemed so after your itty bitty ones!
Never give up on life. I like that saying. My child was born with a chromosomal abnormality, and I too was given the option to abort. He's now a thriving teenager that I couldn't imagine life without. Never give up on life. Ever.
Praise God!
Isn’t it sad that doctors are so quick to suggest abortion instead of trying to actually help? 😔
May God bless you forever for choosing life! ❤ I can't imagine a life without my twin.
What a beautiful story! So filled with life and love!❤
I am so happy for this family. Unfortunately, 20 years ago I lost my boys being six months pregnant to ttts. After seven long years of suffering with health problems and two more miscarriages I was blessed with two beautiful children. So, there is always a place for hope. God bless all you mothers, and your children!
My grandsons went through this. They were identical twins. They are now 30 and doing well. When they were born the first twin had to be given a blood transfusion. He was extremely white in color and the second twin was dark in color as he had the majority of blood A heart Dr had to check him out. I viewed the whole birth from a few feet thru a window. I saw the placenta put on a table right under the same window. You could see the one blood vessel across the placenta that they shared. 30 yrs ago they didn’t have much information on twin to twin syndrome. They were both studied and seen by traveling nurse very often for follow up and study
1 of my TTTS babies "stole" all the blood during delivery, that's how we explain it to others anyways, and how the doctors explained it to us. She was red like she was on fire, and the other was as pale as paper. It took months for them to even out. The crazy thing is, the 1 who was red, was the smaller one, the one all my doctors were the most worried about for blood loss during delivery. My girls think it's great because they can definitely tell who is who in their baby pictures 😂
@@TwinMama-jv3zb Thanks for sharing
Beautiful beautiful Godly story! Beautiful family!
when i was 4 months pregnant they transfer me to another hospital to do surgery for my blood to blood transfusion twins ..then at 6 months my twins were born. One survived n the other baby die a month an half later.. it was so devastating for me and on top of that my other baby twin stay for 3 months in NICU but thank to god that baby survive and after so many years of therapies that baby is now 5 yrs old healthy n thriving and i always think that its a miracle baby!!!
Neighbors had TTTS twins at 29 weeks; neither had reached two pounds. They lived covered on their mother's chest for two months, taken off only to be cleaned or tubes changed in the day and for her to sleep some hours (not 8) on her side at night. Today they are flawless 10 year olds, running around in perfect health, which they luckily always had apart from being early and small.
Such a joy to hear positive stories about loved babies in this crazy world we live in. Congratulations.
I lost my son at 28 weeks. Told everyone in hospital that I was in labour but no one belive me. Thank you Captain Wells who was at the BMH Rintell West Germany 11th August 1981 who worked on my son for over an hour trying to get him to breathe as he had a heart beat. But sad to say baby Ralph was not for this world 😢😢😢
This video should start with a short definirion of what the syndrome actually is, I've never heard if it.
I haven't either. But I'm going to Google it and find out.
So pleased it turned out OK for you and your family.. many years ago I nursed prem babies that had problems,they came to us from the maternity hospitals. I adored them and was so happy when they were able to go.home
Thank God for women like you who with your husband's support NEVER GAVE UP ❤
I also wouldn't have had a baby if I had listened to the doctors and aborted her. They didn't think she'd survive the pregnancy. She showed them.
This happened to my family 4 years ago. My wife and I were so happy to know that is will be twins, but, after two month we was shocked by news that everything points to TTTS. Since this moment we were waiting for a propriate time for specific surgery to separate babies placentas inside uterus. We checked weekly babies vitals to know if something becomes worse. After all, we made surgery at 22nd week. As doctor said - it's 50/50 that all will be ok, but it's 100% that childbirth will happen much earlier than usual 33-34 week. And at 24th week all went bad, bleading, unstable vitals... no one given a chance for our girls with weight 470g and 650g, but they survived, and won the battle for their lives. Now i have two wonderful girls and nothing remains about all this nightmares. Thanks all doctors and personnel who made all possible and impossible to save this little lives.
*”ABORT and start over again”*
They’re speaking as if the babies are toy baby dolls. Those types of people don’t believe in life and GOD. Godbless this family, mom and dad deserve an award for giving life to their babies. Good for you mom! ❤🧸
My cousins sons, were only around two pounds when born, and they are graduated now!
😢😞.
I got pregnant 2012 with identical twins,
I was told they had TTT, I had a surgery done in Texas Children Hospital . They were born at 33 weeks they are Happy and Healthy and 10 yrs old .
Beyond amazing. Seeing them side by side after birth it seems impossible for Lincoln to survive but seeing him get big is truly a modern miracle. I cried when she said all she wanted was to hear a little cry at least…. Thinking he might die any moment all she wanted was such a small and humble ask. I think god had to bless her.
God is absolutely good. Thank you for encouraging other mothers-to- be. Jesus loves you and your beautiful family! Praise Him always!
Beautiful story! Now they are teenagers, right? Would be cool with an update.
Yes update will be great
It just amazes me just how strong those teeny tiny precious little babies are !!! And they picked the right Mom and Dad to show them the way !!! Thanks for sharing your miracles with me !!! 🙏❤️❤️❤️
My twins were at risk for TTTS. The Drs had to induce me at 32 weeks or one of them would have died. They are both almost 5 years old now. The hardest part was leaving them in the NICU so I can go home and watch my other 5 kids. It was so hard leaving them behind but I made sure I got there every day and hold them.
Oh, the relief in my heart when I saw those boys grown!
Wow, that tiny one looked so sick. One is still way smaller. I wonder if he’ll eventually catch up. My nephew who was premature was small until he was about 11 and now he is over 6’ 5”
From what I understand it's dangerous for both twins. The smaller one can get dehydrated and underdeveloped, but the larger one has a lot of extra strain on their heart and they can be at risk of heart failure in utero.
This is the reason I want to focus on women’s healthcare during my graduate studies. Women need comfort and need to be believed about pain and concerns… something which is not common in the USA unfortunately.
Just 10 years ago there's nothing that could've been done and they both would've been lost. They (medical community) has tried and succeeded in finding methods to save twins with this issue. It's truly miraculous and thanks to those who came before and agreed to try unique and new methods.
I believe this video was posted 7y ago and the twins were already about 8 to 10 years, so..
What a happy, moving story! May The Lord Jesus bless you and your husband and those beautiful children. May He bless the doctor that helped you!
Bless you all! So happy for you!
tbh i feel like this shows just how impressive modern medicine has gotten.
Ty for being willing to share this story...a story of hope! God Bless
That little girl is so pretty.
My sister and I had it back in the 90s. We’re 32 now.
1.5kg is only 3.3lbs but he looks huge and like an average sized newborn compared to his little twin brother. This was posted 8 years ago, I wonder how they are today!
My sister had ttts 😢 they didn't make it
What an absolutely beautiful story. Nicole seems like such a great mother 💛 bless their family
I can sort of relate. I’m a triplet and the doctor weren’t sure if my siblings and I would have issues down the road. I had a major stroke and brain bleed. My sister couldn’t breathe on her own the whole 3 months we were in the hospital and my brother had a miner stroke. We were all very sick and 2 lbs each. I was 2 lbs 11 oz,my brother was 2 lbs 12 oz and my sister was 2 lbs 7 oz
Ifv shouldn’t exist when the foster system is flooded. If you only want kids if they’re your blood then you shouldn’t be a parent at all.
My mother was pregnant had us twin in 1963 she did not know she was having twins i was 1lb sister was 5 lbs ..both live.
What a inspiring story, I was born one month early because my mother was pregnant with me and she had preeclampsia or toxic mania, I was born at 4lbs-9oz, and I had to stay in the hospital for 7 days because I was so fragile and tiny, when I was 2 years old, my dad diagnosed me with mild retardation, but I’m still a healthy adult and I have some medical problems, but I’m dealing with them.
God performs miracles and sometimes He uses drs! Ty Father God!
I have miracle TTTS twin boys as well. They were diagnosed at 22 weeks and we were sent from Colorado to Washington state for emergency experimental surgery, this was 13 years ago. They made it without any dire consequences! I went into labor at 28 weeks and then again at 30 but the doctors were able to hold them off until 34 weeks. Boston was born 4 pounds 11 ounces and Jack was born 3 pounds. We were told there was a 60 percent chance that one would live when diagnosed, but I just knew they were fighters! Thankfully, we have two very healthy 13 years old teenage boys eating us out of house and home proving that miracles do happen! We are so thankful for the team of doctors we had around us!
Childrens hospital saved my boy he was so tiny and sick I almost lost him and I almost lost a bit of my self in the trauma of it all
Indeed, miracles do happen!!
I had a student who I think had this with her twin. Her twin was born healthy but she has cerebral palsy. Luckily her family care for her very well and got her the best power chair, signed her up for accessible activities etc
That killing one or both of the babies is the first option offered in situations like this is just so sick and twisted. Especially when there was an option that could possibly save them! Which was given as the LAST option?! Those unborn babies were that doctor’s patients too, and the procedure that could give them a chance was given as the LAST option, killing them, giving up on them, was given as the first.. Our healthcare system and culture is disgustingly backwards when it comes to the smallest most defenseless little human beings among us.
Because typically, this disorder is painful and agonizing and kills 7/10 babies afflicted with it.
Could they not just abrot one baby? They can do that with cats.
Gosh, there's still a big difference in the size of the boys. I'm so glad they both made it, though.
I lost my lil two twins 9/26/01 and 9/27/01 my story is so similar right down to my name which is Nicole I'm in the USA.
Hoping your twins didn't suffer any intellectual disabilities. Bless you all. 🙏
Smh🙄. You shouldn't talk to people
@@elliesouza717 It's not shameful to have intellectual difficulties.
God NEVER makes mistakes. They are beautiful.
Yes he does, or they wouldn’t have been born needing critical emergency assistance
A miracle indeed. Amen...
May God continue to Bless you Mom for your Godly decision to keep both babies

We had the same thanks to PROFESSOR ALEC WELSH I have two amazingly healthy babies and they are 10 months old 💜💜 thriving 🎉
Choosing life is never a mistake!
Beautiful children. Bless them always. 🌸❤️🌸❤️🐶❤️🐶❤️
What a heartwarming story! I think God Blessed you for honoring life ! These 3 children are beautiful ! May God Bless all of your lives ! ❤
My sons are 28 now, they shared the same umbilical cord, I was watched and monitored from 6 months until I was hospitalized in my 8th month. Thankfully my small one wasn’t much smaller than his big brother and now he’s the largest of my children. I was hospitalized for 3 1/2 weeks at the end to try and keep them a little longer. They were delivered via emergency c section weighing 5lb 3 1/2 oz and 4lb 9 oz.
My great grandmother had 7 sets of twins that died at birth from “stomach complications” which my Dr said was probably the same thing. She went on to have 13 living babies.
I was pregnant with identical twin boys and the doctors would constantly have to monitor me for TTS. Every time the size/weight discrepancy increased between my twins, I would increase my protein intake and drank minimum 2L of water/day. I drank extra protein shakes in between meals and that would bring the twin fetus weight close to equal again. Not eating enough protein increases the risk for TTS. My twins were born 6lb and the other was 5lb 15oz. They were full term and healthy.
God bless you and your family 🙏
GOD IS GREAT ALL THE TIME 🙏❤️🙌 GOD BLESS EVERYONE 🙏❤️🙌
You know, except when he intentionally creates babies that would absolutely die without human medical intervention.
I had tts with my Twins It was hard but web made It
What a wonderful story and amazing hospital staff! ❤
Great parents! parents!true morale
Absolutely agree…don’t ever give up as parents. Much ❤to you and family.
My son and his wife went through the same thing. Their daughters both have Rhett syndrome and need around the clock care. There is no quality to their life. The donor twin weighed 1 lb. 3 oz., the other was a little under 3 pounds. At 26 weeks they had to be born because the donor had no fluid in her sac.
What a blessing! God is awesome
She is absolutely right about the any hospital in Australia are very caring n.supportive no.matter who u are where u belong from❤❤❤
God bless your beautiful family and those who saved them!♥️
Thanks to the medical team and support that the family had!
