The mum-of-three is embracing all of the milestones that come with parenting her children Sophia, Hugo and Oscar and is aware of how quickly the years are passing
Rosanna Davison has told how she’s been embracing “all the milestones” throughout the parenthood journey so far.
She said, “I love all the milestones. When they first smiled — I think that was about eight weeks — to when they took their first steps, or when they first said Mama. And Rosanna told how there is “so much excitement” with the holiday season — and birthdays — fast approaching. The mum-of-three also shared some insight into the holiday season ahead — and how they’ve got their sights set on a “nice chilled-out day”.
The aim to raise awareness of preterm birth, as well as the concerns of preterm babies and their families around the world. "My boys were scheduled to be delivered by C-section on the 23rd of November. But when I went in for my last scan, the doctor noticed an issue with blood flow to the placenta and one of the twins wasn't growing as much as he should.“I was monitored overnight, given a steroid shot for boys’ lungs to develop further and they were born then on the morning of November 18. They were born at 35 weeks, so they were premature.
"I spoke to the dietician about the volumes of expressed milk that they would need, and we had the experience of changing their tiny nappies.” “For us, it was a really positive experience ultimately. I knew they would arrive early anyways, because they were identical twins — but they arrived a week or so earlier than expected.
Premature babies having the right-sized nappy is important for a number of reasons — including their sleep. “I wrote about it in my book, When Dreams Come True, a couple of years ago — but I suppose I haven’t talked that much about the experience of having premature babies, not one but two.“We were sent home with folders and books about feeding routines, sleeping, how to put them in a cot safely as premature babies — there’s a whole new set of recommendations, compared to having a full-term newborn.
