I had a c-section and welcomed our perfect twin boys into the world at the start of April... right amidst the covid-19 virus peak.
Bringing a baby into the world at any time in has its challenges, but having twins during a global pandemic has made me feel a whole range of emotions and out of everything I thought I might feel, feeling cheated is the one that stands out.

Mum guilt came as a total surprise to me first time round, I didn't even know it existed! Everyone loves to warn you about absolutely everything hard to come when you're pregnant but not one person mentioned the guilt.

One of the things I'd debated a lot about since finding out I was having twins was whether to opt for a c-section or try having them naturally and I really was 50/50. So at 34 weeks when I had to bite the bullet and get booked in for either an induction or c-section come 37 weeks, I finally decided on a c-section rather than naturally like with my son 2 years prior. Once the decision was made I found that there wasn't really that much practical information (only the medical info you get) about the recovery and afterwards in general or any advice or tips about the reality of it all.
