William and Bryan r here!

On Tuesday 2/11/04, Tina was electively admitted to Maternity Hospital for induction of labour. Sent to her Labour suit at about 11+ am and ARM done at 11:45am. Started to have contraction at about 12pm with epidural analgesic.

Contraction wasn't very strong in the begining, O&G colleague decided to Pitocin her at 3:45pm. Progressing well without pain. At 7pm Os full but the 1st twin (William) station still high (0), with some degree of mal-presentation. Dr. Karen decided to give them another hour if the can descend well with few more strong contraction.

At 8pm, station still high and presenting part still not rotated well. Decesion for LSCS was made and anes colleague came to review and top up the epidural. Pushed to OT at about 8:20pm. I stayed out and waited patiently.

William came out to the world at 8:46pm and Bryan follows at 8:48pm. Luckily we went for LSCS coz Brayn was having cord round neck x2. It would be a problem vaginally delivering 2nd twin with cord round neck tight n in breech position...

William was Apgar 9 at 1 min and 9 at 5 min. He had a patched of port wine stain over his right maxillary area and lil bit of his right upper lids. Other wise, he is active, sucking well and very demanding for milk. Paeds colleague arranged for a MRI scan TRO any associated vascular deformities.

Bryan was Apgar 7 at 1min and 9 at 5min. Bryan doesn't sucks very well thus became hypoglycemic. Was admitted to SCN for forced feeding and close monitoring at day 2 of life. On day 3 of life he was discharged back to mother in the ward and at day 5 of life discharged back home together with the rest of the family.

Currently they r both at home with thier Tina. Feeding well. :)

Thanks.
