It used to really bug me that there was so much about Erin that might be because of her prematurity or might not be. As though find a course would make it easier.

Oh i’m so torn looking at the pictures of your beautiful girls. I’ve been reading your blog for quite some time and there seems to be some similarities between the two of us…I’m a kindergarten teacher, i live in almost rural Melbourne and i find myself pregnant with monoamniotic twin girls. I’m currently 21 weeks and knowing that they will be born at 32 weeks AT THE LATEST! is both a comfort and worry. Worry because they will be so tiny, but comforting because at least they will have made it out safely.. It is so nice to see just how gorgeous your two have grown up to be and it gives me hope that my two will also have that chance.

How beautiful are you girls? Teeny tiny hands and beautiful locks of dark hair oh so cute. And how comfy. I wish I had all that to sleep on.
You know asthma has nothing to do with being prem My daughter born 3 days late and my sone cesarean breach 2 weeks early were 3.8kg and 4.3kg, big baby and huge baby they still have asthma. We dont go near smokers etc etc etc The allergies, I dont think I know a single person who is not allergic to something and as for the emotional immiturity. 6 year old girls, two of them together its going to last a few more years yet. GIRLS!!! I think it peeks at 12.
The scars you talk about are a reminder of the biggest battle of their life, hopefully oneday if things get a bit tough they can look in the mirror, see a tiny faded scar and say to themselves If I can fight to live then I can do this too.

Thank you for joining our Fight for Preemies event and sharing your story. I was moved by your description of the daily reminder of their early birth by the little scars they carry.

At a loss for words. Much love to your little miracles, and their strong mum and dad! Although C was nowhere near as early as your girls I have many similar feelings, especially about wishing the born-early bit away. xxoo
