We're home!
Here is a bit of encouragment:
Psalm 91
He who dwells in the shelter of the most high,will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
This I will declare of the Lord:
He alone is my refuge,my place of safety,He is my God in whom I trust.
I think right now Brittany, He is calling you to REST..in Him. For there is no better place..
Praying for your quick healing!
Stacy
I know those sweet baby faces are there to cheer you...
Congrats on your newest blessings :)
Kelly
Meanwhile, love and smooch those pretty baby girls. :) And their handsome brothers!
I'm praying for you!! I hope every day will become a bit easier and you'll be able to hold your daughters soon.

I will pray for you for quick healing!
How awful to be in so much pain when you should be enjoying these moments.
Take Care~

And after you've had your time working through that, you'll know in your heart that this really was the BEST route for your life to take. Even though it's so immensely hard. God's sovereignty did not stop on Tuesday, He is there still. Right beside you.
There will come a time when you are pain free, holding all 6 of your cherubs at once, and in awe at the multitude of blessings you have. For now, just take it one step, one breath at a time. I wish I was closer and could help in some way. Don't hesitate to ask...
Hugs, love and prayers,
`Arianne
I'm hoping you heal quickly and can get back to loving all six of your wonderful children :):)

I'm praying for you!!!

(They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL.)
What the birth experience will be like is one of those things we think about and dream about and somewhat obsess about every day of our pregnancy.
Being in a car accident and unable to physically do all the things you've been waiting for is not on that list!
But thankfully your girls are here and healthy!
just thinking about ya'll.
You poor thing. Hugs*
Get feeling better and stronger.
I'll be praying for you and have been! You're doing great despite the circumstances. You're all your baby girls need right now. To be fed and to know that they're loved by all of you.
You'll be able to carry them and hug your boys sooner than you think with all of this as a distant memory. : )
I know exactly how you feel, or at least probably the closest that anyone might come. We were hit on our way home from the hospital with our 2nd baby, Hayden. We were t-boned directly into my door, and I had had a c-section and the selt belt went through my incision. We were so excited to be taking our baby home, only to be taken directly back to the hospital. It was the scariest moment of my life, but we praise God that Hayden, only 2 days old was ok in the back seat. It was so hard though, the pain in my back was so immense, and I felt like I was supposed to be able to enjoy my new baby, but instead I was going to the doctor, chiropractor, physical therapy... it was so hard. It is such a unique situation, that is how so many doctors told me, because of the relaxin in your system because of the the pregnancy, every bone and muscle is "stretched" so to speak, but then in a moment it all locked up, into the incorrect postions. You are in my prayers. I got through it, it was very hard, but I did, and I know you will too.
You do not know me but I would like to pass on a little advice as I have suffered & heal from a horribly accident in the past. Talk about your feelings as much as you can with whomever you can. Do NOT feel bad to lay your woes on others in this time of great need. ALlow others to open their hearts to some of your pain to offer their shoulders for some of your burden. No one can take your physical pain away, oh how I wish we could, but to talk & scream, & complain, & ask WHY?!?!, is an OK thing to do. In the long run the more you lay on the table now the better for you. It is so hard because us mommies want to be strong for our families & not show how much emotional pain we are in. But, it is OK. It will help you grow, heal & accept over time.
I made the mistake of only showing glimpses of my pain & it ate me up inside.
You are so blessed but this SUCKS! & you are justified in letting the world know that it does. Your pain & your sorrow for what you are missing are justified sweetie.
I pray you heal emotionally & physically quickly. I pray you find the courage to face your sorrow. I pray the patience your husband & sons will also need to get through this new journey. I pray your little girls will be in your arms soon.
God Bless.
We will continue to pray,
Darlene
Love you!

I get so angry that I have waited so long also and now have to be in more pain. But we do have our wonderful babies and this WILL be all over soon. I will be praying for you.
As for the pumping and dumping after a CT scan. You might want to look into that. My midwife told me that the Dr. don't know this or say this but apparently it is ok to nurse afterwards. I did not ask all the details but though I might pass along the info.
Praying for eased pain.
you're in my prayers!!!!
Don't worry about us--you take it easy and enjoy your babies and sweet boys!

Congrats again, to you and your hubby and boys! Good job, Mom!
Praying for you...

Trust in Paul, he is doing his best and that is enough. Let the Lord handle the rest.
It will be alright.
Danielle, Jeff and the boys

I just had twin boys back in mid June after 13 weeks of bedrest (mostly in hospital) due to TTTS. My boys survived but still we did NICU time. On top of that, I was atrophied from bedrest and had to have blood transfusions after some complications. I also had a robbed feeling and was frustrated. . . my older three kids at home had been w/out me for months. It was not easy.
We are still slow. But it does get better. Just takes time. . . Accept any and all help. Your kids will be amazingly resilient. Some stuff (like 2 babies crying at once, haha) will not even phase them but will drive us big folks bonkers!
Prayers. . .

Take care.
I can't even imagine the pain of all your injuries on top of the physical mending your body is doing after having the babies. Nevermind all the nursing that's going on right now. Two hungry mouths to feed when your whole body is hurting so... you're my hero. And this will pass. You WILL heal! Know that you have a lot of people lifting you up in prayer to the God who has had His hand on you and your precious baby girls the whole time.
HUGS!! And lots of prayers!
