Edit with Additional Info:
Cody wrote the picture descriptions while I was hopped up on morphine. He did a fine job, but his lack of explanations make things seem worse than they are. I'll do a more full birth story later, but here is a summary:
On Sunday, December 9, I started to have extremely bad pain in my ribs and back. Eventually at about midnight on the 10th, Cody made me come up to the hospital. It was a good decision because I was diagnosed with severe preeclampsia. The babies had to come out. They called my on call MFM and the boys were out by 530 am on Dec. 10.
