You are here: Twin girls born during covid 19 at 25 weeks
Hi everyone I wanted to share my story. My twins girls Daisy and Lily where born at 25 weeks on the 29th June 2020 during covid 19, the most scary time of my life going to my local hospital for them to say I was getting tranfered to Manchester. Anyway I had Daisy at 22.29 weighing 1lb 6oz by vaginal birth. I couldn't see her as there was lots of doctors and nurses around them. The next thing I know is I'm getting told I'm getting rushed to theatre as Lily was transverse. She came by emergency c-section at 22.51 weighing 1lb 4oz.
Both girls spent 8 weeks in Manchester before they finally got to come back to our local hospital. Everyone who looked after my girls are true superhero's. If it wasn't for them I don't think my girls would be here today. Daisy spent 108 days in hospital and finally came home, but on home oxygen, she's doing amazing. Lily came home after 88 days in hospital. They are true fighters, they have both been through so much in such a small space of time, but I'm so proud of them x
