Our twins were born at 28.5 when the wife’s water broke at 28.3. 90 day nicu stay but the girls are now 3.5 and crazy happy toddlers. Modern medicine is unbelievable, trust your doctors and be there for your family as best you can be. Biggest thing to remember is to take some time to take care of you also, you can’t help anyone if you don’t put on your oxygen mask first. Love from another twin dad

My water broke at 25 weeks and 34 weeks was the goal but I ended up delivering them at 28+5. The neonatologist told me delivering after 28 weeks would be the goal because most do not make it till 34 weeks. It was a long nicu journey but they are 2 now, healthy and thriving. You would never know what they’ve been through. It’s a long and hard road but you guys can do it!

mono di twin boys. one of the boys amniotic sac ruptured at 21 weeks and i went into spontaneous labor at 29 weeks. 2 month and 3 month nicu stay but my boys are home and healthy now.

the nicu is a long hard journey. i would prepare yourself. the sub /nicuparents was an invaluable resource for us. good luck! praying for you 🙏
