At one point, I was like, have they got a sore throat?
Is that why they're not swallowing?
Oh, my God.
And they were like, oh, you know, they're premature.
And, you know, you just got to keep trying little and often, little and often.
And that was all I was ever told.
There was no, well, yeah, they're underweight.
Like, let's, like, take this seriously.
So, yeah.
So then the hospital would say they're underweight.
They need to go and feed in tubes.
Because they just were not.
They'd take about 10 mil on the bottle.
so then they went on feeding tubes and they had to stay in hospital for two weeks before you go into Great Ormond Street and it feels like you're back to where you began yeah and then all that was like coming up I felt like I was being triggered yeah so yeah so then they were in hospital for two weeks then they went to Great Ormond Street and that that was a whole another level I just remember walking into this room
And there was like eight people waiting to see us.
And it's so overwhelming because you're like, fuck.
It really hits you how serious it is.
And each person is assigned to do something to test your baby.
I walked into the room and it was just like, it sounds so dramatic to say it, but it's like the feeling I got when I walked into the room was like someone had died.
So then they said, right, first of all, we want to sit you down and we just want you to tell us what you've been experiencing, what's been going on, how long you've noticed these signs for.
