Bachelor Nation first met Sarah Herron on Season 17 of “The Bachelor,” and she returned to our screens for Seasons 1 and 3 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
After many highs and lows of her IVF journey, Sarah just shared that she and her husband Dylan Brown have welcomed twin girls.
The Bachelor Nation star took to Instagram to introduce the world to her two little miracles, Evy and Coco, earlier this month.
The little ones have been spending time in the NICU, as they were born at 32 weeks, and while Evy is ready to leave the NICU, Coco is still there.
Sarah shared an update on her Instagram Stories, writing, “Everette has been officially discharged! but sissy is still in the NICU feeding and growing. On the same day that Ev was discharged, Colette was having a hard time eating and gaining weight.”
She went on, saying, “Everyone kept asking me if I was so excited for Everette, and while yes I was, I was also extremely torn up that the girls were being separated and that Colette had taken a few steps back. Excitement just isn’t the emotion I have felt for the last few days. Every NICU mama knows how crushing a few steps back can feel, and to have your twins separated is the worst feeling ever.”
So the new mama shared why their family will be staying at the hospital despite Evy being ready to go home.
Sarah said, “We’re all staying at the hospital with Colette. My hospital is amazing. They let us still bring Evy into the NICU for feedings so that the girls can eat and stay on the same sleep/eat schedule. We get to stay at the hospital on what’s called ‘motel status’ as long as we have a baby in the NICU. We think Colette only needs a couple more days, she’s made great progress again in the last 24 hours! She is gaining weight, eating and maintaining body temp! We’ll all go home as a family once she’s ready.”
And while she is grateful they will hopefully be able to go home soon, the Bachelor Nation star added that, “It’s incredibly hard on the mama heart to not have Colette doing all of these firsts with Everette. Like, seeing the outside sky, and sleeping in the same room as us. But we are all rooting her on from a few feet away and can’t wait to bust out of this hospital soon!”
We are continuing to wish the best for Sarah and her entire family as they navigate their NICU journey and beyond. We know that her continuing to share her story will help so many others going through something similar.
