Hi Guys

Jennie - Good Luck for today - I really hope everything has gone smoothly. Can't wait to hear the god news.

Heather - I SO know what you mean. I would love to get this baby out before Christmas - I really hope I don't go overdue. It's really uncomfortable now. I have been having loads of Braxton Hicks Contractions - but I don't know if that means anything.

I hope everyone else is doing okay. Love Vicky

He's here and just perfect! Jack weighed 8lbs 6oz. He was 19 1/4 inches long with a FULL head of hair! We had a c-section and he had some breathing issues when he made his arrival but all is okay now. I still am amazed he is here!!!!


I wish everyone a safe and healthy delivery and hope all the new Moms are doing well.[/img]

Just wanted to check in and say congrats to everyone!
I still read the posts but hardly have time to post now that we are home and in full swing with the twins and two other children.
It has been such a pleasure to share with all of you!!

Heather - Your Next! Let us know when anything is happening. I'll be tagging along behind about a week later unless she really wants out! - which would be handy!

Hi Heather

WHAT? but you're not due till the 15th are you? How did you manage to get an induction so early? No point in asking you now as you will probably be mid induction as we speak! I hope all goes well. Take Care. Love Vicky

Hi Ladies!
Hope everyone is doing great. CONGRATULATIONS!!! Sounds like everything went well. I am assuming you are all like me, with very little time to get to the computer to read, much less write!
I spend alot of time on Double Trouble reading and getting advice but hardly ever to write. I do think about it when I am up at night feeding babies though!
We are doing well. The girls just went for their two month check up today. They are both growing like weeds. Lucy is already 10.9 lbs and Scarlett doubled her birth weight and is now 8.6. I am really loving every moment.
Is everyone nursing? I am pumping and feeding bottles mostly. I really miss nursing but after 12 days in the NICU, they really prefer the bottle. I am still trying....
How about sleep? Have you gotten to the 3-4 hours streteches yet??

Sarah - Great to hear that things are going well.

We are adjusting. We had Miller's 1 month appointment on Friday. He's 11 lbs and just so big. He isn't sleeping much. He's up every 2 hours nursing. I tried giving him a bottle which will give me 3 hours. I can't wait for the 4 to 5 hour sleeping stretch. He's just so big and loves to eat. DD is doing great. She loves her little baby brother. She's doing way better than I thought she would. I love having a little baby in the house again. I'm so in love with him.
