Mummy, Daddy and Family
Twin To Twin Transfusion
When we found out I was pregnant we was so happy because William and Charlie was our first children.
Went to hospital for our 12 week scan and I laid on the sofa where the nurse started scanning and
then ask how many babies did we think we where expecting and we said we think one baby she replied
with a big smile you are having TWINS. We was really happy and shocked also but we could not stop
smiling. We went to see the midwife alot as well and I had to have lots of scan and see a consultant
who specialised in multiple births. She told us we was having identical twins we just looked at each
other and she started saying there can be complications with identical twins such as TTTS. We had
the 20 week scan and Alex didn't want to find out what sex they where. Went to see consultant
she got the midwife to take my blood pressure it was ok and then had to go and have a scan see how
our William and Charlie where doing and they both starting fighting with each other and the
consultant started smiling and saying they are very active. We went for the 26 week scan and was
expected to have a straight forward scan and the nurse had trouble picking up twin one's heart
beat and then she tried to get twin two's heart beat. She then said I need to go and get a
doctor to have a look for the heart beats so he came back with the nurse he started to scan for a
heart beat which he could not find on William or Charlie she had to tell us that William and Charlie
had got their angel wings and flew away to the fluffy clouds in the sky. We both just sat there and
just started crying and also in shock.
I told her that we wanted to see our consultant and she put us in a room and our consultant came in
the room she grabbed hold of me and gave a big hug and said she was sorry. We had to discuss about
me coming in to give birth. I had to go in on the friday as discussed with the consultant and us. It
was friday morning and we had to get ready to go in for 10 o'clock. We find it hard to still
talk about the birth of William and Charlie. We went into the ward were we was put atthe bottom of
the corridor from where the newborn babies was but all of the nursing staff and midwifes where very
good to us. I went into labour which I found very distressing and upsetting because we knew William
and Charlie would not be alive because our little angels where stillborn. I had so much and more
lovely nurses and midwifes to help me with the labour. Alex was so worried about me. Then we found
out we had two beautiful baby boys I asked Alex can we call them William after my grandad and
Charlie because I liked the name (I was telling everyone when I was pregnant that I was having baby
boys). We stayed in over and said our goodbyes for now and went home on the Saturday morning which I
didn't want to really leave my two little boys. It broke our hearts to leave William and
Charlie.
When we had to arrange the funeral which the hospital did for us because William and Charlie were
stillborn. The chaplin in the hospital was so lovely and kind he made us feel comfortable when we
had to meet him. The funeral very hard and upsetting but Alex carried William and Charlie's
coffin it was so tiny and very light. I read a poem out.
We have found lossing William and Charlie is the hardest we have ever been though in our lives.
We love you boys and Miss you both William and Charlie so much.
xX Please pass this on to remember our little ones Xx

Take a moment of your day
To maybe sit and in your mind
Think of all the precious babies
Yours, theirs and mine
Those whose short lives were over
Before they had really ever begun
Those precious little bundles
Who have made us all a Mum
Their tiny lives have touched us all
And what I want to say
They have brought us all together
Each and every day
The babies whose beautiful faces
In our minds forever will be
Whose names are etched within our hearts
For anyone, the whole world to see
The babies who touched our lives
Who we think of through our tears
I hope in time we will be able to smile
When we remember them through the years
So this week while we remember
All our babies who had to go
We shall show the world we are united
And how we love and miss them so
Love Rachelxxx
Our beautiful little stars
William & Charlie
A mummy for the first time
The joy was pure, all consuming
You nestled there in mummy's tummy
So sweet and unassuming
They held their breath
Your parents dear
Such news brought shock and delight
Not one but two sweet little ones
Cuddled up snug and tight
Identical
You both were like the other
What a joy
Your gender was a secret, but mummy was thinking.. boy!
Playful ones you wrestled there
So full of life and games
But 26 weeks and this the scan
Where nothing would be the same
The shock
Distress
How could it be?
You'd grown your wings
And flown
This was to be our fairytale
Such horror who could have known?
Then you were born
Two gorgeous boys
So beautiful and true
The hardest thing they've ever done
Was saying good bye to you
William and Charlie
Such special names they gave
And tears streamed down as daddy carried both of you
To the grave
Your mummy read a poem
And oh they hung on tight
Because they knew you both were gone
And day had turned to night
Your mummy and daddy love you so
They miss you every day
You are their most beloved sons
And yet you were called away
Fly high oh darling angels
In a place so bright and clear
Until the day you meet again
They’ll always hold you near
Together we walk the Stepping Stones
Come, take my hand, the road is long. We must travel by stepping stones. No, you're not alone. I've been there. Don't fear the darkness. I'll be with you.
We must take one step at a time. But remember, we may have to stop awhile. It's a long way to the other side
And there are many obstacles. We have many stones to cross. Some are bigger than others. Shock, denial, & anger to start.
Then comes guilt, despair, & loneliness. It's a hard road to travel, but it must be done. It's the only way to reach the other side.
Come, slip your hand in mine.
What? Oh, yes, it's strong. I've held so many hands like yours. Yes, mine was once small and weak like yours. Once, you see, I had to take someone's hand
In order to take the first step. Ooops! You've stumbled. Go ahead and cry. Don't be ashamed. I understand. Let's wait here awhile so that you can get your breath.
When you're stronger, we'll go on, one step at a time. There's no need to hurry. Say, it's nice to hear you laugh. Yes, I agree, the memories you shared are good.
Look, we're halfway there now. I can see the other side.
It looks so warm and sunny. Oh, have you noticed? We're nearing the last stone
And you're standing alone. And look, your hand, you've let go of mine.
We've reached the other side. But wait, look back, someone is standing there. They are alone and want to cross the stepping stones. I'd better go.
They need my help. What? Are you sure? Why, yes, go ahead. I'll wait.
You know the way.
You've been there. Yes,, I agree. It's your turn, my friend . . .
To help someone else cross the stepping stones
If only we had time to grow
IF ONLY we had more time to grow,
We know our mommy would love us so!
IF ONLY our hearts had time to beat,
It would be full of love for family we'd meet.
IF ONLY our legs had time to grow longer,
We know that soon they'd become stronger!
IF ONLY our eyes had time to see,
We could picture a bond between our mommy and us.
IF ONLY our lungs could be filled with air,
Then we would know you truly DO care.
IF ONLY time could be so vast,
So we could have memories of the breath we took last
OUR LITTLE STARS
Our Precious Angels
Our Precious Angels always in our heart you fill our lives with joy even though we are apart nothing can fill the void made when you both had to depart.
We will always miss you both and know you both will always watch over us to make sure we are ok. We will never see you both smile or laugh and play. We will never see your first steps and pick you both up when you both fall or even your first day at school.
Our hearts are breaking into two because were sad for not having you both here with us because your wings had spread out and you both flew away to heaven together.
You are our precious angels or saints up above you have touched our lives and painted our hearts with love and joy, happiness and you will always make us proud when you left us you made us cry out loud why us why now you are our precious angels upon your heavenly cloud.
Love Mummy & Daddy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
