Twins: update 1

Everything is going well so far. The babies are now over 10 hours old. The girl is doing fantastic. Feeding well, sleeping well, etc. The boy hasn’t been doing as well at feeding and as a result has had lower than ideal blood sugars.

Apparently this isn’t abnormal for a twin, delivered at 37 weeks, with some gestational diabetes from the mom thrown in the mix. Also it’s typically the kind of thing that corrects itself in a few days. The girl having been both larger (weight) and a better eater means she’s doing better, yet both are generally perfectly healthy in realm of twins.

And here’s a photo of them sleeping about an hour ago.
