'Bachelor' Alum Sarah Herron Welcomes Twin Girls with Husband Dylan Brown 'A Whopping 7.5 Weeks Early' tram

Sarah Herron is a mom to twins — but a little earlier than expected!

The Bachelor alum, 37, announced that she and her husband Dylan Brown had welcomed their twin girls "a whopping 7.5 weeks early" in an emotional post on Instagram on Saturday, July 6, in which she also revealed the girls' sweet names and shared footage of herself and Brown with the newborns in the hospital.

"World, meet Everette Rae & Colette Rose (Evy & Coco) born July 1st 2024. Fraternal twin sisters, our little 32-weekers took us all by surprise a whopping 7.5 weeks early 🤍 We’re all adjusting to life in the NICU as we have a long road ahead of us—undeniably filled with twists and turns—but the girls are fighters and getting stronger every day—we all are," Herron began the post, which was accompanied by a montage video of herself and her husband in the NICU with their two baby girls.

"We’re so grateful for our care team and any continued prayers for our tiny warriors. Today’s plan: Sleep, breathe and grow! Welcome to the world little ones! My heart is completely outside of my body for these two miracles," she concluded her post, adding various hashtags including "#preemiemom #preemietwins #preemiebaby #nicumom."

The sweet video accompanying the announcement also included plenty of close-up shots of the tiny twins, both nestled against their mom's chest and being held by their dad.

With "They're here..." written over the beginning of the clip, it was soundtracked by the Iron and Wine song "Call It Dreaming" and also showed moments of Herron holding one of the twins' hands and her husband shirtless at one point as he had some skin-on-skin time with one of their new babies.

The Bachelor alum also shared her post on her Instagram Stories with a message saying, "Welcome to the world, little ones." Another photo on her Stories showed her standing in front of a mural holding a beverage.

"Much needed breakfast away from the hospital. Navigating time in the NICU is so heartwrenching, but I've hardly seen daylight in 6 days so 30 minutes of vitamin D did wonders," she wrote over the snap. Herron also added a playful nod to the sandals she was wearing, writing "Still can't fit in any other shoes," with a crying-laughing emoji in a separate caption on the pic.

In other Instagram Stories posts she thanked followers for their well-wishes, shared that she was "having pretty good luck pumping so far," over an image of her pumping breast milk, and revealed more about the twins' birth.

Over a video of a room featuring several piles of laundry, she noted that, "One week ago today I was folding baby laundry, and thought I had bad food poisoning. I was vomiting and had diarrhea that got worse by the hour. Dylan was flying home from a work trip."

The next post showed her sitting at a table and was captioned, "Dylan made it home by 4pm. This was me at 7pm. I couldn't even eat soup. By 10pm I started contracting 4 minutes apart. At 11pm my water broke and it was off to the races! The girls were here at 2am!"

Later, she responded to a follower question about how her labor had been, and if she had undergone and epidural, writing over a photograph of herself in a hospital bed, "I did not have an epidural because things progressed too fast, but I had a spinal block once in the OR. (Both girls were breech so I had a c-section.) It went perfectly."

In January, the reality TV star announced that she was pregnant by sharing a photo of an ultrasound on Instagram alongside the text, "Appointment today went well, the babies are growing on track! Next appointment in 3 weeks. The babies look so round and chubs! Little Rolly pollies!"

Herron then reflected on her first ultrasound, revealing that she initially believed she was having triplets.

"What's really crazy that I haven't talked about yet, is that when I went in for 1st ultrasound, there were actually 3 gestational sacs. Yes, that means baby A tried to split and become identical twins, but a yolk and fetal pole never developed. SOOO ... this means for about 15 seconds I had a heart attack that there were going to be triplets," she wrote.

She showed another close-up of her ultrasound that labeled the twins as "Baby A" and "Baby B" and expressed her gratitude for Brown, writing, "He's very chipper as always."

Herron and Brown, who first met in 2017, have been open about their fertility journey, IVF treatment, and the tragic death of their son Oliver, who was born at 24 weeks in Jan. 2023.

Last June, Herron revealed that the couple decided to move ahead with the next step in trying to grow their family after a long in vitro fertilization (IVF) journey.

Since then, Herron has been vocal on her social media channels about her experience being pregnant, expressing that it's been difficult having experienced infertility and being pregnant.

"Twin pregnancy is hard on the body. It is. Any pregnancy is hard on the body and despite complaining or posting Reels about how difficult it is sleeping, I love every minute of my pregnancy," the mom-to-be clarified on Instagram in June.

"And I fully recognize that it is all a temporary experience and so spirits are still high. Even though I’m pretty sure I have a cracked rib right now. It’s just part of it. And it’s also okay if you’re someone who experienced infertility and hate pregnancy. Just want to say that," she continued.
