HI strangers..... Sorry but just got round to registering and collecting my new password....The brain goes even worse after having the babies!!! Have posted a couple of replies to the old timers Anyway thought I might just post an update on my two. Can't believe they are nearing the 6 month mark (corrected age 14 weeks) and they are both all smiles and gurgles. Nothing beats that first smile!!! Growing like wildfire....and Ross even has a girlfriend....they were in neo-natal together and now she is at nursery with them. They are worth all the struggle andnever once have I regretted a moment even the 4.00 am feeds and the mild colic!!! But one major piece of advice...get the "Little contended Baby Book" we stuck by the rules and they have both been sleeping through for weeks....a real godsend and we got the baby sleeping bags also a godsend as no more kicking off blankets or panicking about the temp of the room. I see we have a few more new arrivals and loads more on the way....and I can't wait to share stories. My hubby as posted a website with a few recent photo's of them at www.broganstone.com if anyone wants a quick peek at them. I am biased but they are beautiful...and yes she is about 3lb heavier than him which causes great confusion when people ask if they really are twins. Anyway will be in touch more often and they send a big hug to their Honorary Aunties (espec. Loonpants!!!) Love Nicky

Nicky 6 mths! I can't believe it has been that long! Great to hear that you are all doing well and I will be taking your advice on buying the 'Contented Little Baby' book. It has been recommended by a few people. Give our love to Rebecca and Ross - just going to have a look at the website now. Love Dee x.

Nicky I can't believe that six months has gone by so quickly, it doesn't seem like yesterday when you got the good news that you were expecting. It is really nice to hear how happy you sound. I will be going to have a look at the piccies any minute now. Wishing you all the best and remember to stay in touch. Lots of Love and kisses to all the family. Honorary Auntie Lisa (Loonpants) xxx

Lisa, That would be Daddy....he is putting together a proper website with all their stories from neo-natal on....when he gets the time!!! Have you been watching This MOrning??? They are right in the middle of their 2ww and I am starting to feel as nervous for them?? I can't believe it was exactly a year ago we went through it...our pg test was the 11th Nov. It starts to bring it all back. Maybe we should write in and tell them to get on this site whatever happens as I couldn't have done it without you guys!! Anyway big hugs to their Honorary Auntie Nicky

Nicky I will keep my eye on the website as I thought it was really good and Daddy is a very witty man but don't tell him incase his head swells. I haven't been watching This Morning but I have heard that this babymakers is really good but I didn't want to tape it every week, finding time to watch woould have been a nightmare. There have been a couple of good articles in Woman's Own lately though and I bet some of the ladies are off here after all that was said to that reporter who dared to come on the site. Hope you and Daddy and babies have a good first bonfire night. Lots of Love and Hugs Lisa (Aunty Loonpants) xxxx

I am rushing out to buy a Woman's own as we speak...I got hooked on them when I was pregnant but haven't have much time to read them lately. We had our story published in the local newspaper (they apparantly scan the birth notices for any menion of prematurity or IVF and in ours we thanked our Fertility clinic (well we kind of had to!!!) and then we were approached by a journalistic agency to see if we wanted to sell our story to magazines, so far we haven't bothered but I know they had a lot of IVF Success stories, maybe a mini boom. I don't know if it is just me but there seems ot be loads of stories everywhere about it...Sunday Times a couple of weeks ago published all the league tables etc and This Morning etc. etc. The only thing is all those success stories makes some folk think that it is easy. I have one friend in her late 30's who is single at the moment who said she is not worried about not having had kids yet as if there is a problem she can always use IVF.......Little does she know and she won't listen to me!! Maybe we are the new fashion!!! I always wanted to be trendy!!! I think I am going mad now!!!! Nicky
