Difficult post for me to make
As quite a few of you know, my daughter was expecting twins, however we were recently advised that she was having what is termed a Mono-amniotic pregnancy, and that the outcome wasn't great. During her fortnightly scan yesterday we were told that both babies had died.
She has now got to wait until Saturday to be admitted to the delivery suite at the hospital where she will be given a pessary (sp) every 3 hours to bring on labour.
She has- to all our horror, got to delivery these babies as normal.
I've pondered since yesterday whether to make this post, however as a few of of you knew about her pregnancy and the difficulties involved I thought it right to let you know.
I'm not really a praying person, but since yesterday I have been doing- I honestly don't know how we're going to get through Saturday and the weeks/months to follow.
If anyone feels this post is a bit too depressing, feel free to report it, it has however helped slightly to write it down.
Thanks for listening.

The boys were delivered last night at 11pm. Weighing 12oz and 13 oz.
We were allowed to look at them in a little white casket and my daughter held them today, as well as having photos taken and hand and footprints.
They are still at the hospital as she is still undecided as to what she wants to do with them. But she herself is home and is sending a few days with her dad.
So that, is that really- I can honestly say it's been the worst weekend iv'e ever had, but all your lovely words and wellwishes have helped me- thank you, thank you, thank you xxxx
