    That’s so awful. Glad they’re ok!

    My youngest was born 2.5 months premature. After 10 weeks in neonatal we got them home.

    The next day the community nurses were round checking their blood oxygen levels and it plummeted from 98% to 0%

    The nurse grabbed them off me, placed them on the floor and started doing CPR while yelling at the other to call an ambulance.

    My then wife melted to the floor in tears and I just sat on the sofa staring. I’m 100% sure they’d be dead if the nurses weren’t in.

    If I sit in the dark on a sofa my mind drifts back there. I can see them on the floor and hear the beeping from the monitoring machine. I’ve lost hours to these flashbacks before.

    I also can’t watch any TV shows with beeping hospital machines.

    It’s getting easier after a year but thinking about it still makes me feel weird.
