Riaz

At 1 day old. Riaz was admitted to the Special Care Unit for 11 days due to rapid breathing. He lived in an incubator for about 8-9 days, and moved onto the bassinet till he was released.

I only saw him on the 3rd day that I was admitted, at that time everything was still surreal and I couldn't make up my mind on how to feel about being a mom, going through surgery and having babies, but when I saw him in the glass box, I really felt shattered.

This brave boy is now the sunshine of my life.

The Newborns

I'd never thought I'd say this - I LOVE BEING A MOM.

A mother of two, upon a given time.

My baby boys Riaz Iman and Ariz Rehan were born on 12th October 2012. I chose the date for the c-section surgery as a tribute to my mother, who was also born on the same date. 

I'd also never ever thought I'd write a blog about my boys, I've always thought people who blog about their babies have nothing better to do to occupy their time, but only after my babies were born did I realize how I could not go another day without writing about them.

It's not just about blogging, or my babies... it's about documenting their lives, and letting them read it later when they're all grown up. 

How could I pass the chance? Having twins is so so rare, even I would want to treasure the moments!

And how difficult can it be... writing about something you're madly in love with :)
