What beautiful children ❤. My father was born in 1942 as the surviving twin from a twin to twin transfer . At the time, little to nothing was known about this condition so Dads brother did not survive even though he was over 7 lbs. Dad, by sharp contrast, weighed 1 pound 1 oz. They were born at home in a poor farming community and the doctor didnt hold much hope for Dad. He told my Great Grandmother to make him warm and comfortable that he wouldnt survive till morning. My Gran told the doctor where he could stick his ideas and wrapped Dad in soft lambs wool , tucked him in her best roasting pan and put him in the warming oven of her huge old wood stove. (A sort of cupboard built into the stove away from the fire where food was kept warm). She fed Dad withnan eye dropper and he lived in his snug little nest for the first 6 months of his life. People came from all over to look at the impossibly tiny baby sleeping in a roasting pan 😂. Today, Dad is 81 and one of the tallest men in his family! ❤

Wow, what a story your family has. Is it ok if I ask if you Dad’s twin was born alive? Do you think your Dad was the recipient or donor?

Wow. The idea of a tiny baby sleeping in a roasting pan is so interesting. I’ve heard of women in the past that would use a drawer taken out of their bedroom chest-of-drawers/dresser, but never of something for an even smaller baby.

This happened to us. My daughter lost the first baby in utero. The second baby was 17 ounces at birth and spent five months in the NICU. She made 5 pounds, they sent her home with no apnea monitor. She died two weeks after coming home, from SIDS, they said. After breast feeding (pumping) and bonding with her for 5.5 months. My daughter was inconsolable, and losing two babies altered her deeply. She has a little girl now, and that baby girl healed her heart. We are SO thankful.

My 26 year old identical twin boys had twin-twin transfusion syndrome. We had an emergency c-section at 33 weeks. They were 2 lbs 3 oz and 5 lbs 11 oz. They are both healthy men now. They told me to prepare because they didn't expect them to be born alive.

My identical boys with TTTS are 16 now. Born at 31 weeks. One 4 lbs the other 4.7. They are both healthy and strong now. But it was a rough start. I instinctively ate milkshakes and cookies everyday last few months of my pregnancy. And now Ive learned that TTTS calls for a very high calorie diet.

My sister and I had TTTS and she survived as well. We were born in the early 1990s. There’s only one picture that was taken a few days after our birth and while we were both very small, I was much smaller. I was pale and lifeless while she was red all over and her head was huge. I needed blood transfusions and she had to have blood drained. We have been through so much together. She’s my best friend.

Thank you so much. My girls were so sick inside of me and at one point I was seeing specialist often. Back then 34 years ago they didn't know much about it. After the passing of Kayla and Kelsey I made a decision that an optopsy be performed so that in hopes this would help other families in the future and there would be a cure to understand stand this. I believe in my own way that they did, I found out so much myself of this and after all this time I see miracles like what these parents and babies went through and they are here today. My girls will live in my heart forever. I have Three grown children now and eight grandchildren! I am truly blessed!😇🙏💕

Ayyy, I weighed as much as a bag of flour too! Me and my twin sister were supposed to be triplets but the third egg didn't have a heart beat.I was very under developed and my identical twin sister took care of everything for me. A couple of weeks before we were born, doctors did a surgery to remove TTTS basically, but when that happened I didn't have much blood and my sister had lots. When we were finally born a month early, I was blue, and my sister was red. we had to stay overnight with my mother because we were born via c-section and I was very underdeveloped. Now I am healthy with just a couple lung spasms every couple years or so and live a great life with my sister. 😎👍✨

I also delivered a set of twins with ttts! It was 1963 and I knew there was a problem but it was never explained to me. I was very young and the circumstances around my pregnancy were terrible. My twins were adopted by a, what I now know, a lovely beautiful couple. It has only been 3yrs ago that my boys were brought back into my life by the grace of my Heavenly Father! Sorry, didn’t mean to go on like this. What have found out is because of the ttts they never left the hospital for 4 mths. Thank you for this information!

My donor twin passed away in my arms 3 hours post delivery, and my recipient twin survived and is now a beautiful 22 year old young lady. I remember the silence when my little twin Devon Grace was delivered. And I remember the angel babies in the NICU during the 8 weeks my survivor needed in hospital post birth. It was the most bitter-sweet, life changing period of my life. But I do feel so blessed

I’m so grateful your beautiful boys survived! My heart aches for those who lost twins to TTTS!! Our beautiful TTTS boys were the New Year’s Babies in 1980 in a small community in NE Minnesota. Born 18 days early via natural childbirth, Aaron weighed 6# 9-1/2 oz & 19”. 5 min. later, Ryan-in fetal distress- arrived and weighed 3# 14 Oz. and 17”. The attending pediatrician deemed him “a fighter”! It would be 2 years until we learned about TTTS. Now married and fathers of their own daughters, they are indeed a miracle!

As the grandmother of out TTTS girls we prayed non stop and at 28 weeks our darling girls were born. One darling had CP but we fought hard to learn all the steps to her care. Her twin always had a mental connection and would warn us when a seizure was imminent. Learning to care for a handicapped child didn’t prevent our deep love for this truly spirited non-verbal soul. She sadly passed in 2021. She was almost 17 years old.😢

Our daughter at the age of 22 was pregnant with identical twins, a miracle in itself as she had had a tube removed due to an eptopic pregnancy and was still pregnant with the twins. At 17 weeks she was diagnosed with TTTS, had laser therapy and lost one a few days later. This in itself is also heart breaking, having both twins scanned each time she went for a check up until Mark was born and then Jack who had not survived. Mark is going fine, but as pekka and speech problems but he is our miracle and a huge blessing.

My daughter had twin to twin transfusion. They were born at 26 weeks. Dustin was 1 lb 8oz Dylan was 1 lb 4 oz. Dylan was born with CP. They are 21 years old and very healthy. Nicki didn't have the option of surgery so they took out 2 liters of fluid every week until her placenta started to fail. Then they did a c section. Dylan had a 4 grade brain bleed and had a shunt put in his head to take off extra fluid at 1 day old. Thanks to all the doctors nurses and God they both are very healthy happy young adult men.

I am also very glad that their sister did not suffer the same problems and was delivered naturally at full term, I know she's obviously not a twin, but you get what I mean, as well as the parents being such warriors also. Also, I find it really sweet how you can still see the size difference between those boys even now they are in school, you'd certainly know who was who despite being twins! Great job to the hospital as well of course, they clearly did a tremendous job at looking after those boys and their mother whilst there, because both twins are still alive today!

This brought back so many memories of when I was pregnant with my twins.. we didnt have twin to twin but twin b had a slim chance of survival due to heart and lung diseases, we also got asked about aborting her and it could possibly cause issues for twin A (they arnt identical and they had their own sacks and placenta..so very different to your boys in that way)..but i felt the same feelings as you talked about..how could you let one go and have the other, knowing you let one go..I wouldn't be able to cope. Come delivery day the girls were born and I had that same goal all i wanted was to hear twin b cry..she made a squeaky cry and I knew she was fine. The twins are our 3rd and 4th babies. They are now 21 months and twin a is a little pocket rocket and twin b has her health issues and chromosomal abnormalities, 24/7 oxygen but she is smashing goals and the sweetest thing! Twin a was born 2.2kgs and twin b was 1.6kgs..born at 34 weeks..

Neighbors had TTTS twins at 29 weeks; neither had reached two pounds. They lived covered on their mother's chest for two months, taken off only to be cleaned or tubes changed in the day and for her to sleep some hours (not 8) on her side at night. Today they are flawless 10 year olds, running around in perfect health, which they luckily always had apart from being early and small.

I have miracle TTTS twin boys as well. They were diagnosed at 22 weeks and we were sent from Colorado to Washington state for emergency experimental surgery, this was 13 years ago. They made it without any dire consequences! I went into labor at 28 weeks and then again at 30 but the doctors were able to hold them off until 34 weeks. Boston was born 4 pounds 11 ounces and Jack was born 3 pounds. We were told there was a 60 percent chance that one would live when diagnosed, but I just knew they were fighters! Thankfully, we have two very healthy 13 years old teenage boys eating us out of house and home proving that miracles do happen! We are so thankful for the team of doctors we had around us!

This happened to my family 4 years ago. My wife and I were so happy to know that is will be twins, but, after two month we was shocked by news that everything points to TTTS. Since this moment we were waiting for a propriate time for specific surgery to separate babies placentas inside uterus. We checked weekly babies vitals to know if something becomes worse. After all, we made surgery at 22nd week. As doctor said - it's 50/50 that all will be ok, but it's 100% that childbirth will happen much earlier than usual 33-34 week. And at 24th week all went bad, bleading, unstable vitals... no one given a chance for our girls with weight 470g and 650g, but they survived, and won the battle for their lives. Now i have two wonderful girls and nothing remains about all this nightmares. Thanks all doctors and personnel who made all possible and impossible to save this little lives.

My twins were at risk for TTTS. The Drs had to induce me at 32 weeks or one of them would have died. They are both almost 5 years old now. The hardest part was leaving them in the NICU so I can go home and watch my other 5 kids. It was so hard leaving them behind but I made sure I got there every day and hold them.

I had a student who I think had this with her twin. Her twin was born healthy but she has cerebral palsy. Luckily her family care for her very well and got her the best power chair, signed her up for accessible activities etc

My grandsons went through this. They were identical twins. They are now 30 and doing well. When they were born the first twin had to be given a blood transfusion. He was extremely white in color and the second twin was dark in color as he had the majority of blood A heart Dr had to check him out. I viewed the whole birth from a few feet thru a window. I saw the placenta put on a table right under the same window. You could see the one blood vessel across the placenta that they shared. 30 yrs ago they didn’t have much information on twin to twin syndrome. They were both studied and seen by traveling nurse very often for follow up and study

1 of my TTTS babies "stole" all the blood during delivery, that's how we explain it to others anyways, and how the doctors explained it to us. She was red like she was on fire, and the other was as pale as paper. It took months for them to even out. The crazy thing is, the 1 who was red, was the smaller one, the one all my doctors were the most worried about for blood loss during delivery. My girls think it's great because they can definitely tell who is who in their baby pictures 😂
