You don't know me, but my husband, Chr...Laura,<br /><br />You don't know me, but my husband, Chris, grew up in Cottonwood with your husband, and I've heard about your sweet girls from a friend of mine (the Eskews). Anyhow, I have 3 year old twins that also suffered from TTTS. They were born at 29 weeks at 1.14oz and 3lbs. I know what you face and deal with every single day with those sweet girls in terms of feeding issues. Looking back, I know I completely force-fed my little Adam for the first 2 years of his life. I was obsessed with helping him gain weight. At one year old, he was 13 pounds. He did consistently gain, he just didn't "catch up" to his peers as his brother did. It was hard, too, because I couldn't help but compare them to each other. He is still littler than his peers.... he & his brother are about 6 pounds apart now (they've been that way for the past 2 years or so)... but he is WONDERFUL!! healthy. funny. brave. agile. so smart. really, an amazing child. <br /><br />I think it's great that you're getting help with the feeding. I never did that. It probably would have made things better earlier for all of us.... anyhow, I'd love to keep in touch or be able to help in any way. Please email me! I'd love to send you a picture of my happy, healthy 3 year olds!!!
