Aimee’s Story - Unexpected pregnancy, Twins, pregnancy concerns, pre-term labour, NICU Experience and life as a twin mum

Today we talk to Aimee who tells us about her Maiden to Mother Journey which started when she found that she was unexpectedly pregnant after being with partner Alex for 5 months. 

 

Aimee found out she was pregnant with twins during her first scan and takes us through her roller coaster pregnancy where she was told that one of her babies had a high chance of having a chromosomal abnormality. After a lot of testing and being bombarded with information from health professionals Aimee decided to put her foot down and trust her intuition that her babies were going to be fine and let the pregnancy unfold without the testing. 

 

She tells us about her pre-term birth story at 29+4 weeks and we go into detail about the NICU experience and her son's, Hudson and Oakley's recovery as well as her own recovery. 

 

We also talk about breastfeeding and life as a mum of two.
