Here is Wyatt & Weston’s birth story, told by their mama Erin…
”The Sweetland twins have made their arrival after waiting for daddy to finish Seattle Fire Academy! Our little guys held out to their induction due date at 38 weeks and joined us a day later on 5/22/22. Even though it was super uncomfortable for me, it ended up being the absolute perfect timing. Weston Charles joined us at 8:08 am at 5lbs 7oz & 17” long, while Wyatt Patrick felt a bit cozier and finally joined us at 10:54 am. He measured 2 lbs heavier than his brother at 7lbs 6oz and 18.5”. I was able to achieve my goal of vaginal delivery after 17h labor, 1 hr of pushing for Weston & 3 more hours of pushing for Wyatt to arrive with forceps assist (360+ bearing down pushes during contractions every 2min for 4hrs total ). We are all exhausted and operating in survival mode this first week to get our little ones in the safety zone of weight and bilirubin levels by any means possible - our first huge challenge after delivery. We are so happy they are at home with us (no NICU time) and are embracing our new miraculous, instant family of four! Our two little guys are so adorable and we still can’t believe they’re ours. We are feeling very blessed.”
And, here are the sweet, smiling boys at 1 month old….
