Hello Everyone!!! I have finally gotten a chance to upload some pics - Here are the stats for those that don't know:
I started having contractions at about 3:00pm on Friday 2/10 - Of course - I just figured they were gas pains - what the hell do I know. On Saturday the 11th, I even tried to go into work - it lasted for all of an hour or so and then we went to the hospital where my contractions were 1-2 minutes apart (yeah - leave it to me - I know!)
Nicholas Henry Mensche entered the world at 11:53 am weighing in at 6 lbs 8 oz and 19.25 inches long (they first told us he was only 18 inches - but a week later he is 19.25 - so I think the Hospital got it wrong!)
Nicky's sister Jennifer Rose Mensche followed two minutes later at 11:55 am at a petite 4 lbs 15 oz and 18 1/2 inches long. Jenny tried to bite the doctor's fingers when she came out.
Unfortunately, I had a placental abruption and Nicky swallowed alot of blood and had to be taken to the NICU - he was a tough little sucker and he was able to come upstairs with us on Monday night.
So far - Nicky is the high maintenance one and Jenny is insanely mellow - guess she takes after her Daddy!
Joey is totally smitten with his brother and sister and very protective too - Daddy is totally in awe.
I am doing fine - a little sore but nothing a few good motrin won't fix.
Both babies were a little jaundice but don't need light therapy - they are a week old today - I can't believe it!!!!
Here are some pics:
