Veronicah entered the Great Western Hospital at 4am, so it was a short labour. No time for any higher level pain relief, so Veronicah once again made do with gas and air. The staff were brilliant and as twins for a slightly older mum are high risk we had nine members of staff including four Doctors. Immediately after giving birth Veronicah was taken to the operating theatre, and was successfully operated on by the Consultant who stemmed some fairly serious haemorrhaging.
All are doing well.
Both Lily and George have put on nearly two pounds over their birth weight. Feeding through the night is fun as always with both of us looking forward to getting some sleep soon.
Names: Lily Wanja Veronicah Welsh after my Mum, Veronicah’s Mum, and Lily’s Mum. George Mukundi Michael Welsh after my Grandad, Veronicah’s Grandad, and George’s Dad.
A great start in life.
