Jeffery and Jaliyah – 27 weeks

Posted by huntnashay@yahoo.com on July 28, 2008

My name is Nashay, I’m 17 years old and I had twins( boy and girl). I delivered them at 27 weeks gestation. My son Jeffery weighed in at 2 pounds and 4.5 ounces and my daughter Jaliyah weighed in at 2 pounds 1.5 ounces. They were delivered by crash c- section on May 31, 2008. On that day, I was having a contraction so I went to labor and delivery. They told me that I was four centimeters dialated and my son’s foot was in my vagina. I had to go under general anesthesia. At 8:18PM my son was born and at 8:21PM my daughter was born. They are both in the NICU until August.

Fostering a sharing and caring environment at home is nothing short of difficult. Especially for twins, who are often times expected to be each other’s best friends, expectations can be overwhelming. Bunk beds for your twins can grant them individual spaces while still learning valuable lessons about compromise and cooperation. The bunk bed helps save space in the kids’ room while your twins work together toward a common goal, whether it be making the bed or deciding who gets to sleep on the top bunk. Comfortable, secure, stylish, and a space saver, bunk beds can also be a vital learning tool for teaching your kids an important lesson in cohabitation.
