As soon as they were born the doctors put tubes down the girls throats, so they could breathe, hooked to ventilators. They also put lines in their belly buttons, called Umbilical Vein Catheterization for IV fluids and medications. After I got out of recovery they wheeled me, in my bed, to the NICU to see the girls for the first time. They are the tiniest things I have ever seen.
